CoRaLi-DAR
advanced detection and ranging system
for the automotive industry
About the
Project
The EU-funded CoRaLi-DAR project will develop a low-cost, low-power and reliable advanced detection and ranging sensor system as a platform for the automotive market and beyond. The project aims at integrating in the same module both radio and light-based sensing, exploiting LiDAR’s high-resolution capabilities and RADAR’s strong reliability in adverse weather conditions.
The full integration of photonics and electronics will reduce manufacturing cost and operational power
