ANAHEIM, CA / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2023 / Phoenix Motor Inc. (NASDAQ:PEV) ("Company" or "Phoenix"), a leading electrification solutions provider for medium-duty vehicles, today announced that it has reached an agreement with Rayz Technologies to pre-install Rayz Technologies' flagship mass-production LiDAR sensors in its next generation electric vehicles. The company's future product lines, including electric pickup trucks, buses, trucks, and other models will be fully equipped with Rayz new generation of LIDAR Osprey H2.

Rayz Technologies high performance LiDAR sensor Osprey H2 is a mid-to-long-range, cost-effective automotive-grade LiDAR specially designed for the ADAS pre-installed mass production market and high-level intelligent driving.

With Rayz Technologies' proprietary technology, the Osprey LiDAR sensor outperforms its competitors products, culminating in the detection range of 260m with a 10% reflection target and a maximum range of 320m, point cloud data rate of 1.5 million points/second (single echo), field of view of 120° x 25° with angular resolution of 0.1°x0.2°, at half of the power consumption of the industrial norm in an ultra-compact volume.

Compared to similar 905nm LiDAR products, Osprey H2 uses 30% less key optoelectronic components in its transceiver system. Compared with 1550nm LiDAR products, Osprey H2 achieves a cost reduction of more than 60%.

"LiDAR is an important sensor for realizing autonomous driving. The Rayz team has a deep understanding of LiDAR-related technologies, and the comprehensive performance of its new product Osprey is eye-catching. We are glad to see Osprey will be fully adopted in various smart models to empower Phoenix's smart driving", said Denton Peng, Chairman and CEO of Phoenix. "In the future, the two parties will work together to further integrate their respective technologies and jointly develop the application of autonomous driving solutions in a wider range of scenarios, allowing more people to benefit from the convenience and safety brought by autonomous driving," Peng also commented.

"Phoenix Motorcars is a pioneer in the global commercial electric vehicle field and is actively expanding into the light-duty vehicle field. We are honored that Phoenix has chosen Rayz Osprey products among many LiDAR products. We are looking forward to bringing consumers a safer, smarter and richer travel experience with Phoenix Motorcars", said Chen Ruxin, CEO of Rayz Technologies.
