Terranet develops software for advanced driver-assisted systems and supplies the technology behind next generation’s autonomous vehicles. Using lightning-fast 3D technology, VoxelFlow™ scans an area 25 metres ahead of the vehicle and reacts in five milliseconds. This can be compared to the 300 milliseconds of today’s ADAS systems. VoxelFlow provides the car with lightning-fast sensor technology, so it can detect what’s in front of it and act accordingly – in five milliseconds. Compared to today’s ADAS systems, it shortens the braking distance with 5,4 metres when the vehicle is travelling at 70 km/h. VoxelFlow cuts the reaction distance from 6 metres to 6 centimetres.
“The Sensor Cortek computer vision development team quickly understood the potential of Terranet’s VoxelFlow 4D sensor technology and accelerated our development of the CV/AI backend processing of VoxelFlow low latency 4D data. Your development team is well organized, efficient and has a great attention to details. Five stars!”
