Helius system includes Lidar sensors from Cepton at intersections (image credit: Cepton, courtesy of ALP.Lab) Cepton has partnered with the Austrian Industry and Testing Alliance (ALP.Lab) to build Lidar-equipped testing environments for studying complicated driving situations on Austria's roads. ALP.Lab – an alliance of automotive suppliers such as Magna and AVL – delivers real-life data to test the capabilities of autonomous driving systems, and helps enable solutions to reduce accidents and improve traffic flows. Cepton says this project will deliver real-world traffic data from complex urban and rural alpine intersections. Austria's mountainous landscape presents challenges in ensuring vehicle and pedestrian safety, where difficult traffic scenarios could pose obstacles for the deployment of autonomous mobility solutions.
