World’s First Level-4 Autonomous Electric Bus Uses Triton Cameras with flowride.ai
A 100% electrically powered, self-driving bus has been declared road-worthy for the highways and streets of Europe and the USA. Developed by California-based tech company ADASTEC, and one of Turkey’s leading automotive manufacturers, the bus is the first Level-4 self-driving electric bus in its segment.
ADASTEC’s automated transportation platform, flowride.ai, uses LUCID’s 5.4 MP Triton cameras featuring Sony's IMX490 backside illuminated CMOS sensors with 120dB of dynamic range and LED flicker mitigation. The Triton camera captures all scene detail in both bright and dark imaging conditions and allows ADAS algorithms to make safe autonomous driving decisions.
The Atlas 5G camera family will be expanding with IP67 models with the Atlas ATP 5GBASE-T product line and will feature a range of popular global and rolling shutter sensors. The camera size will be slightly wider than the regular non-IP67 version measuring 60mm x 60mm. First models will be available at the end of Q2 and will include the 7.1 MP featuring the Sony IMX420 and the 20 MP with the IMX183 sensor running at 17 fps.
