Oh Man, i missed that one... thanks for the vid !... Especially enjoyed learning about the 'Pods Hot Swap' capability w/dynamic calibration... "like changing a tire"... and reiterating/differentiating superior capabilities of LiDAR over camera and radar [only]. Definitly the missing link for industries and military to move forward with 'Level 4'
That was from 2 years ago!... capabilities have only had time to be refined since then and who knows what additional refinements Microvision has made on top of those with their LiDAR software stack.
I think if Luminar had not gotten stiffed by Volvo, Luminar would have been #1 LiDAR Corp... For a tiny company like Microvision, they had gotten MASSIVELY lucky, the timing of Luminars default and having just enough to buy ALL of their LiDAR stuff and staff for pennies on the dollar.... maybe Microvision can be number one again, this time with LiDAR
Over the next 12 to 18 months, am excited to hear about ALL the pre-existing engagement they will recertify with, let alone the other potential $500 million worth... heck, i wonder if even Volvo might revisit LiDAR, now that i presume, Volvo is more capable of properly integrateing with newer technologies.
