Chip-based Lidar packs the pixels for use in vehicles and more

BERKELEY, Calif., March 16, 2022 — A research team led by professor Ming Wu at the University of California, Berkeley is developing a high-resolution, chip-based lidar system that could be used in a range of devices, from autonomous cars to smartphones. The researchers used a focal plane switch array (FPSA) with MEMS switches to pack 16,384 pixels on a 1-sq-cm chip.
