Innoviz Technologies to Develop Lidar for BMW

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Innoviz Technologies and the BMW Group are expanding their existing collaboration by starting a B-sample development phase for Innoviz’s second-generation InnovizTwo lidar sensor. Samples will be fabricated following BMW requirements.

The partnership will include the first deployment of lidar-enabled highly automated technology on the BMW 7 Series later this year. The result of the first B-sample phase will enable the BMW Group to decide on a serial development agreement with Innoviz that will focus on bringing a new array of advanced automated capabilities to a broader range of the BMW lineup.

In addition to the lidar solution for the 7 Series, the BMW Group and Innoviz have started the first phase to develop a lidar-based minimal risk maneuver (MRM) system. The MRM acts as a secondary safety driving decision platform that will leverage the advanced performance, reliability, and resiliency of the InnovizTwo lidar to manage real-time driving decisions. The MRM system is part of a growing software suite from Innoviz that will also include its next-generation perception software.

Last year, Innoviz’s InnovizTwo lidar sensor and perception software were selected to supply lidar technology for automated vehicles in the Volkswagen brands.

Glossary
lidar
Lidar, short for light detection and ranging, is a remote sensing technology that uses laser light to measure distances and generate precise, three-dimensional information about the shape and characteristics of objects and surfaces. Lidar systems typically consist of a laser scanner, a GPS receiver, and an inertial measurement unit (IMU), all integrated into a single system. Here is how lidar works: Laser emission: A laser emits laser pulses, often in the form of rapid and repetitive laser...
