Sidewalk last mile delivery robots: a billion dollar market by 2030?
Last mile delivery is the most expensive part of the delivery chain, often representing more than 50% of the overall cost. This is mainly because it is the least productive and automated step. As such, many are seeking to bring automation into the last mile. In recent years, many companies around the world have been innovating to utilise autonomous mobile robots, drones, and autonomous vehicle technology. By:Dr Khasha Ghaffarzadeh, Research Dire...
Mobile weather simulation designed for ADAS testing
The safety of autonomous vehicles and driver assistance systems is closely linked to the performance of the sensors used. The driving assistants are dependent on the accurate recording of the environment. The weather has the greatest disturbing influence on the environmental measurement via camera, radar and lidar.
Powerful and accurate 2D LiDAR sensor
With its LMS4000, SICK has developed its most powerful and accurate 2D LiDAR sensor to date for materials handling and intralogistics applications, even at high speeds, in low ambient light or when goods, packages or parcels are matt black or glossy.
Demonstration board uses eGaN FETS to develop ToF in automotive applications
Time of flight (ToF) relies on fast and accurate object detection. In automotive design, it is used in lidar systems for safety systems in advanced driver assisted systems (ADAS).
Low-power, high-performance processors enable ADAS
Texas Instruments has introduced the new Jacinto 7 processor platform. Built on the foundation of TI’s decades of automotive systems and functional safety expertise, the new Jacinto processor platform brings enhanced deep learning capabilities and advanced networking to solve design challenges in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and automotive gateway applications.

Joint development of integrated radar-based navigation system
Oxbotica and Navtech have announced their joint product development of a radar-based navigation and perception system to be launched in 2020. The product represents the latest advancement in radar-based technology and the partnership marks an important milestone in Oxbotica’s plans to take its software from development towards commercial deployment.
Long-range automotive imaging and detection at CES 2020
ON Semiconductor will have its latest LiDAR technology front-and-centre among the company’s automotive solutions at CES 2020. Recognised as a leading provider of detectors for LiDAR, the company will demonstrate the industry’s first, high-resolution, wide field-of-view (FoV) Single Photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array family designed for short-, mid- and long-range LiDAR applications.
Avoid setup issues for wafer-level tests
Photonic integration provides higher density, increased performance, and lower cost, enabling multi-terabit Ethernet switching and communication, quantum computing, LIDAR, and bio-sensing applications. Discover the webinar which addresses wafer-level opto-electrical measurements for integrated & silicon photonics.
Hub drives - the next step for modular robots
Ross Robotics specialises in remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) that are modular. The robots are designed to be made from generic parts to build robots small, medium and large. Tools and sensors are modular too and can be plugged on to suit the application. One robot can then perform different functions, which is highly unusual in the robotic world.
