LiDARs are an important piece of the autonomous driving and ADAS puzzle. While they boast impressive resolution and frame rates, they have also built a reputation for being big, bulky and expensive. Can there be another way?

Paul Drysch, CEO of PreAct Technologies certainly thinks so. PreAct has been working behind the scenes for a number of years to develop their short-range LiDAR which aims to deliver all the functionality of a LiDAR at short distances while addressing the biggest drawback of the technology - its cost. Their software-definable LiDAR is to the world of LiDARs what the software-defined vehicle is to traditional cars.

Join Paul and me on this episode of the AI in Automotive Podcast as Paul gives us a crash course on LiDARs, their types and flavours. We also talk about what the sensor suite in future cars might look like, and where PreAct’s low-cost, short-range LiDAR fits in. Paul believes LiDARs’ time in automotive is yet to come. I am so excited about how technologies like PreAct’s can expand LiDARS’ use cases, and accelerate their mainstream adoption.
