Automotive-Grade Fully Solid-State 180° Short-Range Lidar
Small Size, Wider Perspective
With significant enhancements in the transceiver modules, FTX delivers industry-leading resolution in an ultra-compact form, redefining short-range blind spot coverage.
Seamless Integration
Weighing just 160 g, the FTX delivers exceptional performance in a compact form. Its embedded installation features only 2 cm² exposed optical window for a sleek, refined appearance.
Blind Spot Detection
FTX delivers excellent resolution performance, with a point rate 2.5 times higher than the previous generation, effectively covering blind spots around the vehicle and accurately detects obstacles such as strollers, e-bikes, and pedestrians.
Ultra-Wide Field of View
FTX uses fully solid-state e-scanning technology, achieving a maximum horizontal field of view of 180° and a vertical field of view of 140°
Product Highlights
The Hesai FTX is a fully solid‑state LiDAR designed for short‑range, wide‑field‑of‑view perception. Its 180° horizontal field of view and solid‑state architecture make it ideal for applications that require near‑field coverage, blind‑spot elimination, and seamless integration without moving parts.
- 180° Horizontal Field of View
Provides an exceptionally wide front‑ or side‑viewing angle with a single sensor, covering large blind spots, intersections, and close‑range areas around the vehicle or robot. - Fully Solid‑State Design
With no rotating or mechanical components, the FTX offers high reliability, compact size, and low power consumption—making it suitable for mass‑production applications where durability and integration flexibility are critical. - Short‑Range Optimization
Engineered for high‑density point cloud capture at close distances, the FTX excels at detecting curbs, low‑hanging structures, pedestrians, and small obstacles immediately adjacent to the sensor. - Automotive‑Grade Reliability
Developed and validated according to automotive industry standards, the FTX is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions (temperature, vibration, moisture) and meets rigorous safety and quality requirements for production vehicles. - Class 1 Eye‑Safe
Compliant with Class 1 laser safety standards, ensuring safe operation in public and human‑centric environments. - Flexible Integration
Its compact, low‑profile form factor allows for placement in wings, bumpers, grilles, or pillars without compromising vehicle design or aerodynamics.
Key Applications
The FTX is primarily designed for automotive and robotics applications that require wide, near‑field perception in a compact, solid‑state package.
| Application Area | Description |
|---|---|
| ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) | Serves as a corner or blind‑spot LiDAR for L2+ to L3 autonomous driving systems, enabling lane change assist, intersection collision avoidance, and automated parking with comprehensive near‑field awareness. |
| Autonomous Driving | Used on robotaxis, autonomous shuttles, and self‑driving trucks to cover close‑range blind spots and provide redundant perception for safe maneuvering in urban environments. |
| Passenger Vehicles | Its compact, solid‑state design allows integration into mass‑production sedans, SUVs, and electric vehicles (EVs) as a front‑side or rear‑corner sensor for enhanced safety. |
| Robotics | Ideal for logistics robots, autonomous forklifts, and service robots that require accurate, wide‑angle obstacle detection for navigation, docking, and collision avoidance in cluttered spaces. |
| Smart Infrastructure | Deployed in intersection monitoring, toll stations, and pedestrian crossings to capture high‑resolution near‑field data for traffic analysis and safety applications. |
