Doppler lidar is also being developed to guide today’s futuristic tech like self-driving cars and drones — now, it will bring a makeover to space navigation that has been decades in the making.

Blackmore's Doppler lidar also eliminates interference from sunlight and other sensors, and improves long-range performance compared with conventional lidar.

Now imagine instead of an SUV or pickup truck, you’re cruising down a stretch of asphalt in a vehicle that weighs 108 tons.

Blackmore Sensors and Analytics, Inc., the pioneers behind Doppler lidar for automotive applications, today announced two new product lines.

Clements and his students have studied about 30 fires over the years using a Doppler LiDAR system that is similar to radar, but it uses a pulsed laser to measure ranges and other information.

LiDAR vs vSLAM: which is better? For the vast majority of people, LiDAR will prove the superior system. LiDAR navigation is faster and more reliable, with the bot cleaning logically in straight lines.

Waymo says lidar and radar help the robotaxi detect pedestrians before cameras can. The company showed how sensors can spot a passenger inside a Phoenix dust storm.

The Navigation Doppler Lidar is scheduled to launch from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida at 2:18 a.m. Monday on Astrobotic Technology’s Peregrine 1 lander aboard a United Launch ...

Emerging lidar technology and tried-and-true radar systems are working together to help cars better navigate without humans.

Doppler Lidar Works on the Interstate Just as Well as it Does on Mars Lidar wasn’t invented by NASA—that honor belongs the Theodore Maiman, who built the first prototype at Hughes Research ...

The coherent 2-µm Doppler wind lidar aboard the Falcon F20 research aircraft has been operated for almost two decades and has made significant contributions to numerous national and international ...
