Optical Time-of-Flight Measurement Explained in LeddarTech White Paper

As discussed in a new LeddarTech white paper, optical time-of-flight measurement computes the distance to a target from the round-trip time of flight between a sensor and an object. Since the speed of light in air changes very little over normal temperature and pressure extremes, and its order of magnitude is faster than the speed of objects to be measured, optical time-of-flight measurement is one of the most reliable ways to accurately measure distance to objects in a contactless fashion.

Global Salmon Initiative Issues Tender for New Sources of Omega-3 Feed Oils

The Global Salmon Initiative, a group representing many of the world's top Salmon Farming operations, issued a tender for new sources of oils rich in omega-3 to be used in salmon feed.

Passive Technologies for Sensing Very Constrained in Capability According to LeddarTech

Pierre Olivier, Vice President, Engineering and Manufacturing, LeddarTech Inc. recently authored an important white paper regarding detection and ranging. Olivier said, "Although it is possible to obtain distance information with passive technologies, such as stereo triangulation of camera images, these passive technologies are usually very constrained in capability. For instance, stereo triangulation requires well-defined edges for the matching algorithms to work. Therefore, the most commonly used technologies for measuring the position of an object involve sending energy towards the object to be measured, collecting the echo signal, and analyzing this echo signal to determine the position of one or several objects located in the sensor's field of view. Since energy is intentionally emitted towards the object to be measured, we will refer to these technologies as being "active."

LeddarTech Leads Drive for Increased Safety for Unmanned Vehicles

LeddarTech sensors have been integrated in cars and trucks for quite some time already, providing feedback on key systems and components. The new trend is to use smart sensor capabilities to provide information about the vehicle's surroundings and about the road ahead, in order to increase passenger safety and reduce material damage. Short-distance detection for parking and back-up assistance is readily available, but manufacturers' current challenge is to offer efficient collision warning and avoidance systems in the majority of their new car models. Detecting the obstacles ahead (from cars to people to animals), providing blind-spot assistance during lane changes, or even making driverless cars a reality, are all automotive applications where sensor technology plays a key role.
