Scanning lidar system can be scaled for autonomous vehicles
A chip-scale massive-parallelized scanning lidar system is based on a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) with 256 channels for full-performance solid-state scanning >300 m. CMOS-compatible fabrication of the PIC at the wafer-level reduces size, weight, and power for a lidar system, and can be scaled for high-volume applications, like autonomous vehicles.
