QUEBEC CITY, July 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LeddarTech<\/a>\u00ae<\/sup>, an automotive software company that provides patented disruptive low-level sensor fusion and perception software technology for ADAS and AD, is thrilled to announce the successful integration of LeddarTech\u2019s advanced LeddarVision<\/a>\"\u2122\" software with Ficosa\u2019s cutting-edge surround-view camera system, along with other sensors such as radars, IMU and GPS. Ficosa is a leading global company dedicated to the research, development, production and marketing of advanced vision, safety and efficiency solutions for the automotive industry.<\/p>\n

This significant milestone marks a major step forward in the strategic collaboration announced in December 2022 by Ficosa regarding integrating the LeddarVision<\/a> software into Ficosa\u2019s advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) for parking. LeddarVision is a high-performance sensor fusion and perception software stack that provides extremely accurate 3D models of the vehicle\u2019s surroundings, developed using raw data inputs from sensor systems. Integrating this software with Ficosa\u2019s renowned vision technology unlocks the full potential of this software to enable Ficosa\u2019s smart parking assistant for ADAS and AD.<\/p>\n

In pursuit of their shared vision towards the consolidation of the autonomous vehicle, LeddarTech and Ficosa continue to strengthen their strategic collaboration towards developing a pioneering Intelligent Parking Assistance system, allowing even more detailed and precise perception of the surroundings. The hardware and software system architecture teams will begin equipping a car in Israel that will be used, in collaboration, to develop and demonstrate the smart parking assistance perception and driving features. Following this, two other vehicles in Europe will be added to the fleet showcasing the full software and hardware implementation for smart parking assist.<\/p>\n
