We couldn’t agree more – together we advance! Thank you AMD for sharing our collaboration.

Highways.Today took note of our breakthrough in machine vision technology in their article titled, “SiLC Eyeonic Vision Sensor Achieves over 2km Detection Range.” This noteworthy achievement is welcome news for a variety of applications that rely on vision that can see at ultra long distances and with unmatched precision. Think Uncrewed Autonomous Systems (#UAS), perimeter security and drone detection – where advanced warning and detailed environmental understanding are paramount.

LiDAR that can see behind the sunglasses might seem akin to Extra Sensory Perception, but it actually showcases the remarkable power and precision of high-performance #LiDAR technology. When it comes to #DriverMonitoringSystems (DMS), sophisticated vision systems are indispensable. They must ensure accurate tracking of the driver's gaze and head orientation, even in challenging conditions such as bright sunlight or when wearing sunglasses. The reality is, sunglasses designed to block visible light can also obscure the eyes, making it difficult for standard sensors to pinpoint the driver’s focus. Our Eyeonic Vision Sensor, however, takes a different approach that makes it impervious to these challenges.

U.S. authorities' new mandate requires carmakers to install automatic emergency braking systems (AEB) on new vehicles. Recent tests have raised concerns about the effectiveness of AEB systems in detecting pedestrians. While AEB plays a vital role in collision avoidance, its limitations in pedestrian detection call for a closer look at alternative solutions, such as #LiDAR technology. Here at SiLC we point to LiDAR as a highly reliable solution with its ability to operate in various lighting conditions, including darkness. In fact, our extended range capability allows for the detection of pedestrians from distances of over 1 kilometer away, providing drivers with crucial reaction time. Additionally, our LiDAR's real-time velocity precision and angular resolution equip drivers with the necessary data to make informed decisions and enhance road safety. Let's consider LiDAR technology as a viable option for addressing pedestrian safety concerns and work toward a safer future on the road.

Join us at the Xponential Autonomy Show in San Diego! Stop by Booth #5000 to have your 3D LiDAR portrait created as a special keepsake. We look forward to seeing you there! #drones #ai #autonomy

It's not a bird, it's not a plane — it's a drone! Conventional LiDAR can make object identification feel like a guessing game. Adding polarization information to precision distance and high-resolution Doppler data changes that. Take a close look at the photo, and you'll notice the drone with its propellers, while the bird is adorned in feathers. Using #Polarimetry to differentiate between organic and inorganic materials, such as bird feathers versus plastics, metals, or cardboard, can make all the difference. It means addressing a potential threat with confidence versus merely admiring a wayward bird in flight. We’ll be on the show floor at XPONENTIAL Show from April 22-25 demonstrating our #EyeonicVisionSystem. You’ll be able to see first-hand how essential high-resolution velocity data is for detecting subtle movements such as the spinning of drone propellers. For #PerimeterSecurity and overall #DroneDetection, ultra long range, angular resolution and velocity precision is essential. Explore how the power of performance can work for you.

Many experts view chip-integrated FMCW LiDAR as the evolutionary step forward from pulsed LiDAR, mirroring developments seen in the radar industry. FMCW is projected to expand at a robust annual growth rate of 35% over the next decade. At SiLC Technologies, Inc., we lead the industry with our benchmarks in chip integration, achievable range, resolution, polarimetry, and precision. #lidar #autonomy #machinevision #fmcw

Sunny San Diego here we come! Next week we’ll be at XPONENTIAL Show 2024, the premier event of global leaders in the uncrewed systems and robotics industry. Themed ‘the technology event for Autonomy,’ XPONENTIAL is located at the San Diego Convention Center from April 22-25 and we’re on the show floor at Booth 5000. Come and check it out - we’ll be highlighting our #Eyeonic product family and spotlighting our unprecedented technology advancements from the industry’s longest vision detection to instantaneous velocity detection and dual polarization (an industry first by the way). If you’ll be in town let us know and we’ll set up a meeting on the show floor.

Drones, seemingly everywhere, infiltrate our airspace, hovering over baseball stadiums, outdoor concert venues, and even commercial airports. Their unmanned presence poses significant security concerns from unauthorized image capture to physical assaults, data breaches, and airspace violations, not to mention enabling criminal endeavors. Combating these types of threats takes high precision #FMCWLiDAR, capable of capturing dynamic drone data in real-time. That’s where our #EyeonicVisionSystem comes into play with instantaneous velocity for rapid detection, classification and prediction. The hallmark of successful #PerimeterSecurity lies in the power of performance.
