AEye (Nasdaq: LIDR), a leader in adaptive, high-performance lidar solutions, announced advancements in its Apollo 4Sight™ system. Apollo has achieved record-breaking performance with its ability to detect hard-to-perceive black vehicles at over 300 meters while maintaining a 120° x 20° field of view from behind the windshield. This represents a significant improvement over traditional lidar units mounted on vehicle roofs, addressing optical challenges posed by standard glass windshields. Dynamic tests utilized a Wideye® windshield optimized for high infrared transparency, showcasing AEye's 1550-nanometer lidar capabilities.
AEye CEO Matt Fisch highlighted the advantages of this integration, including reduced system costs and a cleaner vehicle roofline. AEye claims that Apollo now offers the best lidar solution available. Attendees of CES 2025 from January 7-10 can experience live demonstrations of Apollo. Interested customers and partners can contact CES@AEye.ai for live demo inquiries.
