With strategically placed research and manufacturing facilities worldwide, Seyond develops LiDAR solutions that enhance autonomous driving and drive the development of smart infrastructure.

The Falcon Kinetic LiDAR (hereinafter referred to as "Falcon K," "LiDAR," or "FK") is a premium automotive-grade LiDAR system developed by Innovusion. It enables object detection at distances of up to 500 meters and can identify objects with just 10% reflectivity at up to 250 meters.

With the ability to maximize point density in a customizable region of interest (ROI), Falcon K significantly enhances object tracking on the road. As a high-performance LiDAR system, it plays a crucial role in ensuring the safe implementation of L2+ automated driving.

Recognizing Risks and Acting Proactively

Detection and Responsiveness The Falcon K can detect targets at a distance of up to 500 meters and has a detection range of 250 meters with 10% reflectivity. This capability allows users to identify hazards early, giving the vehicle sufficient time to react promptly, ensuring a safe and comfortable ride.

High-Resolution Images and Long Range The Falcon K offers extremely high resolution, ensuring precise target detection. Thanks to its dynamic focusing function (ROI), it flexibly adjusts the area of interest for improved target tracking. Even under challenging road conditions, this feature provides greater clarity and increased safety.

Reliability and Proven Manufacturing The Falcon K is a proven, mass-produced LiDAR system for the automotive industry, representing Seyond's commitment to excellence. It has successfully passed numerous reliability tests according to automotive standards, including resistance to harmful gases, chemical corrosion, temperature fluctuations, humidity, frost, thermal cycles, and shocks. Even in the most demanding environments, it delivers unwavering performance stability. With over 250,000 units delivered, the Falcon K1 is a testament to our dedication to quality and reliability.
