3D spatial intelligence software provider Outsight and Lidar specialist Innovusion have partnered to combine Outsight’s software platform with Innovusion’s products. 

This means 3D perception technologies "can be deployed at a large scale for ITS, giving operators access to a whole new dimension of spatial information", the firms say in a statement.

Innovusion - which is rebranding to the name Seyond - supplies image-grade Lidar systems for autonomous vehicles, with sensors stretching from mid-range to ultra-long range.

The company says it has global partnerships with vehicle manufacturers, technology multinationals, and "leaders in smart transportation".

Outsight’s software takes raw data from 3D Lidar, analysing in real time the individual position, movement, and speed of people, objects, and vehicles anonymously in complex environments, including densely-populated areas. 

The companies suggest that the synergy between them "sets the stage for a transformative journey towards harnessing 3D perception technologies to bring new design intelligence and modern detection methods to intersections and highways, increasing the safety of  vehicles, pedestrians and vulnerable road users across the globe".

Raul Bravo, president and founder of Outsight, says: "Long-range 1550nm Lidar certainly has a bright future, and now our customers and partners can leverage this high-resolution data as actionable information.”

Junwei Bao, CEO and co-founder of Innovusion, says: “Our partnership displays the commitment of both parties to furthering the adoption of innovative perception technologies like Lidar in the ITS industry. Together with Outsight, we’re enabling the development of smarter and more efficient transportation systems across the globe.”
