AEye and Intvo Demo Advanced Pedestrian Intent Capabilities at CES 2020
Summary
The demonstration combines Intvo’s smart software with AEye’s 2D/3D adaptive sensing iDAR™ platform, which efficiently captures, processes and optimizes both 2D and 3D data in real-time, to achieve human-like perception that aims to improve safety for all road users. “We are excited to work with AEye to accelerate the development of our technology using LiDAR data to inform the accuracy of our pedestrian behavior prediction.” Intvo focuses on providing smart software solutions that use AI to observe, classify, and predict pedestrian behavior, going beyond processing physical movement vectors in space. Autonomous vehicles will not be able to be deployed safely without taking pedestrian behavior into consideration with the help of cameras and LiDAR data. “By integrating iDAR into the mix, their computer vision algorithms can utilize both camera and LiDAR data to better understand pedestrian interaction, distractions and awareness in order to improve prediction accuracy and accelerate the safe rollout of ADAS features and autonomous vehicle initiatives.” Visitors to CES can also see iDAR’s motion tracking and prediction capabilities at a unique basketball demo, where the system will predict whether an attendee’s free throw will be “nothing but net.” For more information, visit AEye booth 7538 inside the LVCC North Hall, or contact ces@aeye.ai. The company is based in the San Francisco Bay Area, and backed by world-renowned investors including Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Taiwania Capital, Hella Ventures, LG Electronics, Subaru-SBI, Aisin, Intel Capital, Airbus Ventures, and others.
