LAS
VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hesai
Technology (Nasdaq: HSAI), the global leader in lidar technology,
today unveiled its brand-new next generation ADAS lidar the AT1440,
an automotive-grade lidar with 1440 channels, and its solid-state
blind-spot FTX lidar, designed for automotive and robotics, at CES
2025 in Las Vegas.
Highest Number of Automotive Lidar Channels in the
World
As the world's first 1440-channel automotive-grade lidar, AT1440
is equipped with Hesai's latest Gen 4 proprietary technology
platform, leveraging advanced high-efficiency photodetection and
ultra-high parallel processing technologies. The AT1440 pushes the
boundaries of resolution, achieving an angular resolution of 0.02°,
and delivers ultra-high-definition image-level point clouds. It
offers a resolution more than 30 times (1) higher than mainstream
automotive lidars, capturing every detail with 3D precision.
These groundbreaking advancements position the AT1440 as a
gamechanger for autonomous driving, including passenger cars with
ADAS features, setting a new standard for lidar performance and
resolution in the automotive industry.
Debut of Next-Gen Solid-State FTX Lidar
In addition to the AT1440, Hesai announced its next-generation
solid-state FTX lidar for ADAS-equipped passenger cars and robotic
applications. Utilizing fully-solid-state electronic scanning
technology, it supports a maximum FOV of 180° x 140°, giving it the
largest field of view in the world for an automotive-grade
solid-state lidar. FTX's range can reach 30
m @10% reflectivity with outstanding resolution, achieving a
point rate of 492,000 points per second, 2.5 times higher than its
previous generation. FTX's high-definition blind-spot scanning
enables it to capture objects like strollers, pedestrians, and
electric scooters and vehicles in great detail.
The FTX has a compact design while maintaining its powerful
performance, weighing 66% less than the previous generation and
reducing the exposed window area by 40% to 50 x 30 mm through
embedded installation, resulting in a sleek form factor.
As a powerful blind spot-correction lidar, the FTX works in
concert with the vehicle's primary long-range lidar to provide
panoramic perception for L3 and L4 autonomous driving.
Additionally, the FTX can be used for various intelligent robots,
seamlessly integrating into different locations to provide
ultra-wide FOV real-time 3D perception, enabling a broad range of
applications.
Proven Market Validation
In the ADAS market, Hesai has earned more than 100 design wins
across 21 automotive OEMs, including 6 of the top 10 global OEMs.
(2) Hesai has delivered more than 100,000 lidar units during the
month of December, becoming the world's first lidar company to
reach this milestone. In 2025, Hesai's planned annual production
capacity is expected to exceed 2 million units, supported by the
company's mass production capabilities and research and development
innovation.
As Hesai celebrates a decade of innovation, the company
