Hyundai Motor Group and KAIST partner for Level 4-5 autonomous driving = South Korea

KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) recently announced the ``Hyundai Motor Group - KAIST On-Chip Lidar'' in Daejeon City.
LiDAR) Development Joint Laboratory was opened. The joint laboratory is developing LiDAR sensors to achieve level 4 to 5 autonomous driving.
Focus on development. Using optical semiconductors, we can create a LiDAR system-on-chip that can reduce the size of the sensor while increasing its performance, introducing next-generation signal detection methods.
We aim to develop technology that can The laboratory is comprised of approximately 30 people, consisting of a research team from KAIST's Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and a research team from Hyundai Motor Group's Institute of Advanced Technology.
It will be operated for four years. KAIST is developing small LiDAR system-on-chip elements using optical semiconductors and manufacturing high-speed, high-output integrated circuits (ICs) to drive LiDAR.
design, design and verification optimized for LiDAR systems. Meanwhile, Hyundai Motor Group will operate the overall laboratory together with Hyundai NGV, an industry-academia cooperative organization. Grasp technology trends and strengthen technical capabilities
We will carry out tasks such as collecting information for the purpose of developing a new organization and recommending experts.
