Core Viewpoint - Innoviz Technologies, Cron AI, and D2 Traffic Technologies have announced a collaboration to address barriers to LiDAR deployment in intelligent transport systems (ITS), perimeter security, and infrastructure intelligence by integrating their technologies [1][5]. Group 1: Technology Integration - The collaboration combines Innoviz's rugged LiDAR sensor, InnovizSmart, with Cron AI's edge-native 3D perception platform, senseEDGE, and D2 Traffic Technologies' expertise in local deployment [1]. - This integration aims to resolve three key challenges in LiDAR adoption: unreliable perception, fragmented hardware/software stacks, and the lack of field-ready deployment tools [1]. Group 2: Performance Metrics - InnovizSMART can return 5.76 million points-per-second with a single reflection and has a range capability of 450 meters, enabling superior detection of vehicles and Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) compared to other sensors [2]. - When combined with Cron AI's senseEDGE software, the LiDAR data is processed at the edge, providing real-time insights without cloud dependency [2]. Group 3: Market Context - The global ITS market is projected to reach USD 73.76 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 6.64%, with North America expected to account for USD 16.67 billion in 2024 and grow at 6.65% annually over the next decade [5][7]. - The collaboration offers a scalable and ROI-driven pathway for LiDAR adoption in various sectors, including ITS, rail, security, and smart city deployments [5]. Group 4: Implementation and Demonstration - The latest D2 VIA solution will be installed at three key intersections in Atlanta, with a live demonstration scheduled at the ITS World Congress from August 24-29, 2025 [6][7].
