European OEM selects Aeva for automated vehicle validation program

Aeva announced that a major European passenger vehicle OEM, together with a simulation and validation technology leader, will use Aeva‘s 4D LiDAR technology in its automated vehicle development program. Aeva’s Aeries II sensors will gather ground truth data, considered to be the “gold standard” in environmental modeling, to provide the OEM with accurate data to validate its next-generation vehicle automation systems. This new validation program points to the growing interest for adoption of Aeva’s FMCW technology and is in addition to Aeva’s other ongoing automotive opportunities including previously disclosed production RFQs with Global Top 10 Passenger OEMs.Aeva’s unique FMCW technology is being incorporated into the OEM’s vehicle automation projects in collaboration with a leading simulation and validation technology provider. For the validation program, vehicles equipped with Aeva 4D LiDAR(TM) sensors will gather precise data of the environment around the vehicle. The data will serve as the benchmark for validating its next-generation vehicle automation systems including sensing, perception, decision-making, and control systems.
