PRNewswire: Innoviz presents its prototype LiDAR (model Pro) at CES, with quite a complete performance spec, a rarity among LiDAR startups (sans Velodyne):
Looking forward, the company intends to bring the automotive-grade InnovizOne model sometime in 2019. It requires quite a leap in technology to reach the targets in resolution, FOV, range and size set at last year's CES:
Update: As of January 16, 2018, the following design targets are presented for InnovizOne automotive-qualified product on the company page:
Innoviz has a YouTube channel with various media uploaded there.
