Software-Defined Lidar Solution for Automated Incident Detection
Automated Incident Detection (AID) systems for highway, bridge and tunnel monitoring considerably reduces response and clearing times, as well as road congestion — improving overall safety and efficiency. However, current technologies, such as cameras, radars, and loops, have significant limitations. Cameras and radars do not have the versatility to adapt to changing traffic and environmental conditions. Therefore, they are not equipped to provide the highly accurate data needed to detect traffic disruptions or incidents in real time. To put it simply: successful operation of AID applications cannot rely on legacy sensors.
AEye’s 4Sight™ M Addresses Perception Sensor Challenges
4Sight™ M is a software-defined lidar sensor that leverages AEye’s Intelligent Sensing Platform to enable perception to better locate, identify and track objects over time. It is specifically designed to complement cameras, radars, and loops in existing AID applications, dramatically improving data collection speed and quality.
- Enables faster, more accurate and reliable perception up to 350m
- Extends sensing capabilities of existing AID applications — improving overall safety
- Performs in all lighting, weather, and environmental conditions
- Provides better, more accurate data to drive decisions for highway, bridge, and tunnel monitoring
