Pittsburgh, January 17, 2024 (Global News Network) -Coherent Corp. (New York Stock Exchange: Cohr), the leader of the deep sensor semiconductor laser, today announced the launchLidar lighting module platform.

The increasing popularity of the deep sensing of advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) and industrial robots in vehicles is accelerating the demand for compact and flexible lidar systems, and it can operate efficiently and reliable even in the most extreme environment.Using eight 940 NM vertical cavities to transmit laser (VCSEL) modules, Coherent shows a solution that contains several selective addressing field (FOI) horizontal slices.In addition to providing compact shapes and excellent power conversion efficiency, this module is a alternative that is much lower than using a large -scale addressable VCSEL array.Coherent has a shower for its customers to explore a variety of VCSEL module positioning configuration and scanning algorithms to adapt to various deep sensor patterns and landscape types.

"A powerful aspect of the module platform is a solution that can be customized and optimized for using a 30 -meter -long induction in the bright sunlight.About one -third of the size, "Dr. David Ahmari, vice president and general manager of the optoelectric component and module business."In order to achieve this breakthrough in efficiency and size, we are using our most advanced five -knot VCSEL technology to enable each lighting module to achieve an output power of up to 200 W. Our demonstrator is available for customer assessment and betterImagine the expansion of the application scope of enabled. "

COHERENT customers will be able to adjust the duration of the driving arteries to achieve short -range and medium -range lidar sensors.FOI slices can be dynamically selected according to the number of VCSEL modules and the order of scanning.Only the voltage supply of 21 V is required, which is much lower than the existing lidar technology, so it is more efficient.

Coherent provides a wide range of source and passive product portfolio for laser radar design.A source of portfolio includes VCSEL, edge transmitters, laser rods, FM continuous wave (FMCW) sources and pulse fiber sources.The passive device combination includes laser optical, polygon, vibration mirror, lens, ultra-narrow belt filter, Wide-Incidence-Agle mirror, grating and thermoelectric component.

Coherent will display its extensive sensing products and innovations at the Photonics West 2024 booth 4805 in San Francisco from January 30th to February 1st.
