…does it work? The system is completely automated with precision localization that operates indoors and outdoors and is capable of locating shots in both the horizontal and vertical planes (location and elevation). Notifications are delivered in less than 2 seconds (assuming sufficient cellular service) using a multi-sensor system that is more reliable and minimizes false alarms. Knightscope believes that an on-site, hyper-focused, real-time system is significantly more effective than attempting a city-wide approach over vast areas. Sales are targeted to begin during Q4 2023. “We are excited to begin the upgrade of our Nation’s public safety infrastructure by deploying technology…

…markets. This platform also offers high-performance elements necessary for high-precision lidar applications, such as low-loss silicon nitride waveguides capable of handling larger optical powers, said Tower. The new lidar system employs optical phased arrays – hundreds of compact optical antennas—along with amplitude and phase modulators on a silicon chip. This can provide accurate 3D imaging of the surrounding environment without the need for any moving parts, according to the company. In addition, the field of view, resolution, scanning pattern, and scanning speed are all programmable, so advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and self-driving cars outfitted with this system can respond much…
