LiDAR Startup Aeva Raises $45m

Wired, Verge, Axios: Mountain View, CA-based automotive LiDAR startup Aeva demos its coherent LiDAR prototype and announces $45m round A financing. The company was founded by two ex-Apple engineers in 2017. Not much is said about the technology side:
  • The LiDAR is able to measure Doppler shift with a few cm/s accuracy
  • Its range is 200m
  • The power consumption is less than 100W
  • No mechanical scanning
  • Also has a camera functionality
  • Costs in a range of few hundred dollars
“We’re focused on delivering things now,” says Aeva cofounder Mina Rezk. “This is an architecture that we put together, that we know we can manufacture.” That means no exotic materials and using components that are well established and easy to acquire."

Polarization Sensing in LWIR Band

KB ViTA kindly sent me an info about their latest LWIR camera that senses polarization: " It all was started with the fact KB ViTA has developed a very sensitive thermal imaging module VLM640, which had a sensitivity of at least 20 mK in 8 — 12 µm band. The sensor manufacturer turned to KB ViTA and offered an engineering sample from an experimental wafer of bolometric detectors with integrated polarization filters. For KB ViTA it was honorable but, at the same time, there was no understanding of what it is expected to ultimately obtain. The technology and the very idea of seeing the own polarization of the thermal photons of objects that surround us is absolutely new and hardly anyone has experience of processing such information. Below we will show you how the polarization in the IR spectrum looks. There were a polarizing sensor and electronics from VLM640 camera with 20 mK sensitivity. The interesting thing about the sensor is each pixel in the group of four is covered with a p...
