PreAct Technologies, an Oregon-based developer of near-field flash LiDAR technology, has unveiled the first release in its 3rd generation family of sensors – Mojave LiDAR. This high-performance, low-cost sensor solution caters to a wide range of applications, including smart cities, robotics, cargo monitoring, education and university research, building monitoring, patient monitoring, and agriculture, among others.

 

Paul Drysch, CEO of PreAct, emphasized the significance of LiDAR sensors in various industries, offering high-quality data while maintaining individual privacy. He highlighted Mojave’s unique capability to monitor volume and movement through high-density point clouds, providing valuable insights for adjusting services without compromising individual privacy. The point cloud data enables precise object location and volume measurement.

 

Mojave stands out in the market as the only flash LiDAR designed for both non-automotive and automotive applications. Its software-definable capabilities, depth accuracy error of less than 2%, and affordable retail cost of $350 position it as the first mass-market LiDAR, addressing spatial awareness challenges without the exorbitant costs associated with other sensors.

 

The sensor finds practical applications across different sectors. In the retail industry, Mojave aids in analyzing customer traffic patterns, product stocking, warehouse logistics, and violence detection, enhancing customer experience and profitability. For medical and rehabilitation facilities, the sensor can be used to monitor patient movements, minimizing risks of falling and unauthorized security breaches.

 

Mojave also serves automation needs in robotics applications, outperforming other sensors with its precision, safety, and spatial awareness capabilities. In the context of smart cities, the LiDAR technology gathers valuable information about travel patterns and passenger behaviors in public transit, aiding in the implementation of intelligent transportation systems.

 

Furthermore, universities and educational institutions can leverage Mojave for research and innovation in sensor technology. Entrepreneurship centers worldwide can guide student innovators in solving real-world challenges using PreAct’s sensor technology.

 

The PreAct Mojave LiDAR is set to be available globally in September through distribution partners Digi-Key Electronics and Amazon. Engineering samples can be obtained from August 16, and pre-orders are open through direct contact with PreAct. With its diverse range of applications and affordable price point, Mojave aims to make LiDAR technology more accessible and widely adopted across various industries.
