DRIVE Hyperion sensors coverage illustration
DRIVE Hyperion sensor set includes 12 wide-angle fisheye cameras.

Cameras

A mix of wide-angle fisheye cameras for near vision, paired with high-fidelity wide and tele 8MP cameras for detecting longer distances.

DRIVE Hyperion sensor set has high resolution lidars

Lidars

Front center automotive-grade lidar for an additional layer of redundant vision, as well as a rooftop high-resolution lidar for ground-truth (GT) data collection

DRIVE Hyperion sensors have nine radars

Radars

Multiple radars for overlapping front, side, and corner visibility and redundancy, with increased angular and vertical resolution for complex urban driving.

IMU / GNSS

Vehicle position and odometry sensing for precise localization.

DRIVE Hyperion sensors come with vehicle odometry sensing.

USS / RCS

Ultrasonic sensors for parking space measurement and maneuvers. Road condition sensors for assessing road wetness to adapt vehicle dynamics control.
