Velodyne will host an in-booth press conference, featuring CEO Dr. Ted Tewksbury, on January 5 at 11:45 a.m. PST. Velodyne will showcase how it is the only lidar company today, through its cutting-edge hardware and software solutions, that can provide a full circle of autonomy and safety across of a wide range of markets, including automotive, industrial, infrastructure and robotics.

“CES attendees can see Velodyne’s broad sensor and software portfolio and high-performing lidar technology. We are demonstrating how our lidar-based autonomous technology is shaping the future of the automotive, industrial and robotics sectors and helping create sustainable and efficient infrastructure. With our ability to manufacture at scale, we are positioned to capitalize on the first wave of mass commercialization of lidar solutions,” said Dr. Tewksbury.

Trailblazing Lidar Sensors and Software

At the Velodyne booth, exhibitors, customers and industry partners will have the opportunity to hear from Velodyne’s executives and technical experts about how the company’s sensors and software democratize lidar-based safety and autonomy. Among the products Velodyne will showcase are:

  • The Alpha Prime is the optimal long-range sensor for autonomous mobility. The Alpha Prime’s world-class combination of range, image clarity and field of view detects roadway objects with reliability and precision. This state-of-the-art sensor generates a high-quality point cloud in a wide variety of light conditions, with advanced sensor-to-sensor interference mitigation, power efficiency and thermal performance.
  • Velodyne‘s solid-state Velarray H800 is a lidar sensor architected for automotive-grade performance. The sensor is built using Velodyne’s breakthrough proprietary micro-lidar array (MLA) architecture. With combined long-range perception and a broad field of view, the Velarray H800 is designed for safe navigation and collision avoidance in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous mobility applications to achieve advanced driver assistance.
  • Velarray M1600, built with Velodyne’s MLA, provides excellent near-field perception for safe navigation, enabling touch-free movement and last-mile delivery robots to operate autonomously and safely without human intervention. This durable and compact sensor can be deployed in various environments and weather conditions and can be used in almost all weather throughout the year. Velodyne will feature a live Extended Reality (XR) demonstration of Velarray M1600 sensors.
  • Velodyne’s Intelligent Infrastructure Solution (IIS), which creates a real-time 3D map of roads and intersections, provides precise traffic monitoring and analytics that is not possible with other types of sensors such as cameras or radar. IIS reliably collects data in any lighting or weather condition, supporting year-round operation, while also protecting people's privacy. The solution can predict, diagnose and address road safety challenges, helping municipalities and other customers make informed decisions to take corrective action.
  • The Vella Development Kit (VDK) simplifies building autonomous solutions. VDK provides access to Velodyne’s breakthrough Vella perception software paired with its world-class lidar sensors. The software toolkit allows customers to plug in lidar with an off-the-shelf library of functions. VDK advances solution development and accelerates time to market for bringing lidar capabilities to autonomous vehicles, ADAS, mobile delivery devices, industrial robotics, drones and more.

Autonomous Solutions That Are Transforming Industries

The booth will feature products and presentations from customers and partners that are using Velodyne’s lidar technology in a range of transformative solutions including automotive, logistics, mapping, robotics, traffic monitoring, vegetation management and more. The autonomous solution demonstrations are:

Bluecity solutions facilitate the improvement of road safety and mobility in the road networks by providing real-time traffic data and analytics using innovative technology. The company developed AI-powered software integrated with Velodyne’s lidar sensors to monitor traffic networks, generate real-time traffic data and analytics. Bluecity will be showcasing their AI technology at Velodyne’s Intelligent Infrastructure Solution (IIS) demo in the booth.

EasyMile driverless technology is at the core of award-winning solutions for mobility, intralogistics and more. At the Velodyne booth will be TractEasy, the company’s tow-truck autonomous solution that optimizes supply chains with cross/indoor-outdoor, 24/7 material handling at airports, factories and industrial sites.

Emesent is a leader in lidar-based drone autonomy and mapping, with a focus on underground mining and industrial asset inspection. The company’s Hovermap product is a versatile and intelligent lidar scanner that makes mapping of inaccessible areas safe, easy and fast. The Hovermap will be integrated with a Boston Dynamics Spot robot at the Velodyne booth.

Exyn Technologies has pioneered autonomous aerial robot systems for complex, GPS-denied environments. The company’s full-stack solution enables flexible deployment of single or multiple robots that can intelligently navigate and dynamically adapt to complex environments in real time. Exyn will introduce a new pilotless drone designed for autonomous flight in high-risk environments and will be demonstrating their solution at the Velodyne booth.
