LeddarTech and Ficosa Intensify Collaboration for Innovative Smart Parking Assistant
12 July 2023 - 2:07PM
LeddarTech®, an automotive software company that provides patented
disruptive low-level sensor fusion and perception software
technology for ADAS and AD, is thrilled to announce the successful
integration of LeddarTech’s advanced LeddarVision™ software with
Ficosa’s cutting-edge surround-view camera system, along with other
sensors such as radars, IMU and GPS. Ficosa is a leading global
company dedicated to the research, development, production and
marketing of advanced vision, safety and efficiency solutions for
the automotive industry.
This significant milestone marks a major step
forward in the strategic collaboration announced in December 2022
by Ficosa regarding integrating the LeddarVision software into
Ficosa’s advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) for parking.
LeddarVision is a high-performance sensor fusion and perception
software stack that provides extremely accurate 3D models of the
vehicle’s surroundings, developed using raw data inputs from sensor
systems. Integrating this software with Ficosa’s renowned vision
technology unlocks the full potential of this software to enable
Ficosa’s smart parking assistant for ADAS and AD.
In pursuit of their shared vision towards the
consolidation of the autonomous vehicle, LeddarTech and Ficosa
continue to strengthen their strategic collaboration towards
developing a pioneering Intelligent Parking Assistance system,
allowing even more detailed and precise perception of the
surroundings. The hardware and software system architecture teams
will begin equipping a car in Israel that will be used, in
collaboration, to develop and demonstrate the smart parking
assistance perception and driving features. Following this, two
other vehicles in Europe will be added to the fleet showcasing the
full software and hardware implementation for smart parking
assist.
“LeddarTech is very pleased to partner in this
collaboration and celebrate the success of integrating our
LeddarVision software and Ficosa vision technology.” So stated
Charles Boulanger, CEO of LeddarTech. “This relationship is driven
by our commitment to pushing the boundaries of automotive
technology by delivering cutting-edge solutions that enhance
safety, efficiency and driver experiences. Our team is very excited
to continue working with Ficosa on the next phase of the
collaboration,” Mr. Boulanger concluded.
“At Ficosa, we strive to contribute to building
a safer, more comfortable and efficient mobility of the future for
everyone,” stated Josep Maria Forcadell, Chief Technology Officer
at Ficosa. “In this sense, this innovative, intelligent automatic
parking assistant that combines the fusion of LeddarTech’s
low-level sensor and perception capabilities and Ficosa’s
surround-view camera system will have a significantly positive
impact, providing even more detailed and accurate perception of the
environment,” Mr. Forcadell concluded.
