To achieve SAE L4/L5 fully autonomous driving features in the 2021/2022 annual vehicle models, various sensor redundancy systems must be applied. Today’s semi-autonomous driving systems use a variety of radar and camera systems with different quantities and designs. The development of high-performance, cost-effective laser detection and ranging systems that can detect information within a radius … Read more
What Is Perception? In the realm of autonomous driving, the purpose of perception is to mimic the human eye to collect relevant information, providing necessary data for subsequent decision-making. Depending on the decision-making tasks at hand, perception can include many sub-tasks such as lane detection, 3D object detection, obstacle detection, traffic light detection, and so … Read more
Drones, as unmanned aerial vehicles, have a wide range of functions that largely depend on the various devices and items they can carry. Today, we will introduce some common payload devices for drones and their functions.

Multi-Aperture VCSELs of Varying Size and Shape Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) present the basis for large data rate optical interconnects in data centers. Presently VCSELs have replaced edge-emitting lasers for distances below 500m due to their advantages such as on-wafer test possibility. The demand for VCSELs and in particular, arrays has most recently … Read more
