M8 LIDAR SENSOR
Quanergy's patented M8™ LiDAR sensor is a proven LiDAR powerhouse. This compact and rugged
sensor comes at a breakthrough price and was designed to meet the demands of the most challenging
real-world applications. Multiple laser beams and Time-of-Flight (TOF) range measurement result in 3D
point clouds for spatial sensing. The M8 is the first cost-effective, high-definition TOF LiDAR sensor
enabling ubiquitous use of smart sensing in harsh environments. The sensor operates reliably under
any lighting condition and works in any weather condition, include rain, snow and dust.
Quanergy’s 3D-sensing M8 LiDAR sensor enables new applications in the security, industrial
automation, transportation and mapping markets that have not been commercially feasible due to the
high cost of existing LiDAR sensors. Quanergy’s smart sensing solutions can be applied to a variety of
platforms (e.g., vehicles, robots, production tools, monitoring stations) to enable rapid 3D detection,
measurement, tracking, identification and classification of items, as well as triggering actions based on
real-time scenario analysis powered by advanced perception software. Homes, buildings and land can
be made more secure and managed intelligently through LiDAR-based surveillance and smart
detection. Factories, warehouses and distribution centers can be run more efficiently and safely. Vehicle
accidents due to blind spots, poor visibility, changes in traffic flow, and distraction can be virtually
eliminated through the use of LiDAR in Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS) and autonomous
vehicles (AV). Highly detailed and accurate 3D maps can be created to improve navigation and survey
land via terrestrial and aerial mapping.
Additionally, the M8 LiDAR sensor is designed and manufactured under the highest quality and reliability standards, which includes compliance to Quanergy's
ISO9001 certified quality management system. As a result of serving the automotive industry, the M8 was developed from the ground up to be a highly robust and
dependable product.
Because of its versatility, performance and reliability, Quanergy's M8 LiDAR sensor is a trusted solution for various customers across a wide variety of industries and
applications. It is used broadly in various global deployments, making the M8 LiDAR sensor one of the industry's leading 3D LiDAR solutions.
