Cosworth Demonstrates "Car of the Future" Technology with a Truly Solid State LiDAR Sensor


Cosworth, the leading designer and manufacturer of high performance engines and end-to-end automotive technologies, demonstrated a prototype of solid state LiDAR sensor technology as part of the official opening of its new state-of-the-art manufacturing center and North American Headquarters in Shelby Township, MI on Monday, June 25th.

Media and invited guests witnessed a demonstration of a LiDAR technology that is truly solid state. Having no moving parts, the technology is designed and built to provide stability that will meet the stringent automotive standards for reliability.

"At the grand opening of our North American manufacturing center we demonstrated the stability, precision, distance and field of view that are necessary to make autonomous or assisted driving safe," said Cosworth CEO Hal Reisiger. "With a minimum of 3,200 lasers, a clear 120-degree field of view and 200 meter range, we believe this solution is a game chnger for automotive sensor technology."



Cosworth's advanced manufacturing center will be one of the most sophisticated in the world, built for the design and development of the hybrid powertrain for the "car of the future."
