The Indoor Lab is transitioning to 4D Lidar with initial planned deployments at SFO and JFK’s New Terminal One
The Indoor Lab, a specialist in Lidar perception and analytics solutions, and Aeva, which delivers next-generation sensing and perception systems, will provide Lidar for The Indoor Lab’s Lidar analytics platform used to improve safety, security and operational efficiency at major US airports, mass transit railways, agriculture, and in smart infrastructure at theme parks, cities, and other large venues across the US.
Under the agreement, Aeva Atlas4D Lidar sensors will be integrated into The Indoor Lab’s Lidar Overwatch Perception Platform that is the key driver to its Enterprise Analytics Suite for Critical Infrastructure to provide data for round-the-clock AI-powered analytics to monitor and manage indoor and outdoor environments.
The multi-year agreement represents Aeva’s first industrial customer win for Atlas, with sensor shipments beginning this month for The Indoor Lab’s initial customer deployments.
“We have evaluated nearly all time-of-flight 3D Lidar technologies on the market today and selected Aeva because we see significant advantages in its 4D Lidar technology,” said Patrick Blattner, founder and CEO of The Indoor Lab. “Importantly, Aeva is the first to commercialise 4D Lidar for production at scale and its technology brings crucial advantages to our analytics platform, including the addition of instant velocity data and the inherent immunity to sunlight interference. By selecting Aeva, we have future-proofed our perception analytics platform for critical infrastructure throughout the US and will be able to provide the most comprehensive and advanced solutions for our customers at scale.”
Together with The Indoor Lab, Aeva’s 4D Lidar technology will be implemented at some of the United States’ largest and busiest airports, including John F Kennedy International Airport’s New Terminal One and San Francisco International Airport.
“The Indoor Lab is a leader in Lidar-based perception analytics and is expanding deployments rapidly at large venues and critical infrastructure sites across the US. Our unique FMCW [frequency modulated continuous wave] technology will allow The Indoor Lab to deliver high-performance sensing at scale across a wide variety of indoor and outdoor customer use cases to enable improved safety, security and efficiency, said James Byun, managing director of business development at Aeva.
