Know Where Objects Are Going, Not Just Where They Are

LUC-HORIZON™ is the world’s first instant 4D LiDAR, providing [X,Y,Z,V] data in real-time through FMCW technology. While traditional LiDAR takes 100-200ms to compute velocity by comparing frames, we deliver instant velocity in just 7ms—fast enough to predict and prevent collisions that others would hit.

The 100ms Problem

At highway speeds, 100ms means 3 meters of blind travel. Traditional LiDAR must compare multiple frames to estimate velocity, creating a dangerous delay. LUC-HORIZON™ eliminates this blind spot with instant Doppler measurement, knowing not just where objects are, but where they’re going.

Killer Applications

Highway Autopilot - The Game Changer

Cut-in scenarios cause 23% of highway accidents. Traditional LiDAR sees the car entering your lane but doesn’t know its velocity for 100-200ms. By then, it’s too late.

Success Metrics:

  • 7ms reaction time vs 100-200ms traditional
  • 95% cut-in prevention vs 60% baseline
  • Zero phantom braking from velocity confirmation
  • 3x safety margin at 120km/h

ROI Impact:

  • Insurance: 40% lower premiums for L3+ systems
  • Safety: Prevent $2.5M average accident cost
  • Comfort: Eliminate unnecessary emergency braking
  • Adoption: Enable true hands-off highway driving

Drone Collision Avoidance

Urban Air Mobility Detect and avoid birds, drones, and obstacles with instant velocity vectors.

  • Challenge: GPS-denied environments with moving obstacles
  • Solution: 4D perception with predictive trajectories
  • Result: Safe autonomous flight in complex airspace
  • Certification: Meet FAA detect-and-avoid requirements
