Cheaper Solid-State LiDAR Sensors Drive The Future Of Level 3 Autonomy | Carscoops carscoops
is another notable automaker to employ solid-state LiDAR technology. Their driver assist technology, IQ Drive, first appeared in the 2021 Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport SUVs. Now VW’s software unit Cariad is shooting to develop advanced IQ Drive systems that enable limited hands-free driving. The firm has invested $4 billion in LiDAR sensors through Innoviz Technologies, claiming that this system will be available in future models.
Meanwhile, Chinese players are adding these sensors to their production vehicles too. Baidu, Pony.ai, and WeRide, for example, are already offering hybrid solid-state and solid-state sensors as part of their latest technology packages. Robotaxis, such as Argo AI and Waymo, continue to plump for spinning LiDAR systems, as the use-case requires sensors to be of a high caliber. However, with BloombergNEF data suggesting that the cost of such packages can range between $35,000 and $100,000 per vehicle, it’s no wonder why mainstream makers are opting for solid-state tech.
