New evaluation kit for LED-based 3D detection and ranging

LeddarTech, owner of the patented Leddar LED-based detection technology, will introduce its Leddar Sensor Evaluation Kit at Sensors Expo, which takes place from 4-6 June 2013 in Rosemont, IL, USA.

New evaluation kit for LED-based 3D detection and ranging

Leddar, which stands for Light Emitting Diode Detection and Ranging, is a 3D detection technology that combines LED lighting and innovative signal processing into an accurate and robust detection system. Excelling on a wide range of performance criteria, Leddar is claimed to deliver the best cost/performance ratio when compared with competing detection technologies (laser, radar, video, thermal imaging, ultrasonic and PIR/motion). This technology serves multiple markets and segments, making it extremely versatile for 0-50m detection and ranging applications.

The Leddar Sensor Evaluation Kit will enable engineers to easily and rapidly integrate the technology within various applications. Pierre Olivier, Vice president of Engineering and Manufacturing at LeddarTech, states: "Leddar is the first 3D detection technology to be launched on the market in more than 20 years. The technology, which was until now used by LeddarTech for application-specific proprietary products, is already in widespread use in challenging, mission-critical applications including traffic management and law enforcement with selected clients around the globe. This launch marks a turning point by which the Leddar Sensor Evaluation Kit will make it possible for developers and integrators around the world to easily and rapidly integrate the 3D detection patented technology in such various applications that can extend to the industrial, automotive, and security and surveillance markets."

Leddar technology will be available as a reference design, assembled components, OEM modules or finished sensor products. As an optoelectronic technology, it can easily be customised for final applications.
