About Hesai Technology
Hesai designs and manufactures lidar sensors for vehicles, robots and industrial systems. Its portfolio covers long-range forward sensors, 360-degree units and compact near-field devices for advanced driver assistance, robotaxis, delivery vehicles, warehouse robots and mapping.
AT128 provides a 120-degree field of view, 210-metre range at ten-percent reflectivity and more than 1.5 million points per second in an automotive package. XT and JT families provide surrounding perception for mobile robots and stationary applications. Hesai integrates optics, electronics and semiconductor design with in-house production lines to move sensors from qualification into high-volume vehicle and robotics programmes.

The technical configuration includes lidar. The work is scoped to Kodiak autonomous trucks. The announcement identifies a named and bounded programme or configuration.
Source - 2020-10-15 - Product Launch - Hesai unveiled the PandarXT 32-channel mid-range lidar
The new system architecture, based on Hesai’s self – developed LiDAR ASICs, delivers additional performance enhancements. PandarXT has a minimum range of zero and outputs valid point cloud even when an object directly touches the sensor’s enclosure. Extensive R&D work and testing have gone into designing specialized LiDAR ASICs that integrate the functions of dozens of circuit boards.
Source - 2020-09-01 - Product Launch - Hesai launches 128-channel Pandar128 lidar
Pandar128 provides up to 0.1-by-0.125-degree resolution at 10 Hz and up to 6.912 million points per second. The stated detection range is 200 metres at 10% reflectivity, with IP6K9K ingress protection and a 1.63-kilogram mass. The launch described comprehensive testing and automotive-volume-production design, not a named vehicle deployment.
Source - 2019-04-16 - Partnership - Hesai and Horizon Robotics announced strategic cooperation combining lidar and autonomous-driving processing
Hesai Technology was invited to exhibit its latest products – the Pandar64 (64 – channel mechanical LiDAR) and PandarGT 3.0 (third – generation solid – state LiDAR). The strategic cooperation between these two advanced technology companies is a positive for the autonomous driving industry as well. Sun from Hesai delivered a speech outlining the strategic reasons for cooperating with Horizon: 1.
Source - 2019-01-04 - Product Launch - Hesai introduced the PandarGT third-generation solid-state lidar
By contrast, most solid – state LiDAR solutions contain only one or a few pairs of emitters and receivers. Point cloud from Hesai Pandar40P (bird’s – eye view) This brings another paradox: does a 30 – meter – range LiDAR need high resolution? For detecting objects at the 30 – meter range though, a 32 – channel sensor suffices and a solid – state one would be overkill. (Automotive – Grade) Reliability?
