This year, the spotlight shines bright on the advanced capabilities of our flagship product, the Falcon K LiDAR sensor, which has been integrated into all of the competing vehicles. Designed to deliver ultra-long-range detection capabilities with image-grade resolution, Falcon K is not only defining new standards in the autonomous racing world, but also new possibilities, enabling cars to navigate at thrilling speeds of up to 300 km/h.

"The integration of Falcon K LiDAR technology into the racecars represents a significant leap in autonomous racing," says Christian Kimmle, Managing Director of the Seyond Europe GmbH. "Our technology ensures not only the speed but also, critically, the safety of vehicles, propelling us into the future of motorsport. What was once only imaginable in sci-fi movies and books has now become reality."

With its unmatched range and accuracy, the Falcon K allows vehicles to accurately detect and react to their surroundings, ensuring high-speed maneuvers are executed with precision and safety. This level of reliability and performance is crucial in a racing context, where the margin for error is slim and the consequences of failure, even without a human driver, are significant.

The A2RL event embodies the spirit of innovation and technological advancement, showcasing the incredible strides we are making in harnessing AI to shape the future of mobility", states Stephane Timpano at A2RL. "Through partnerships with leading global tech companies like Seyond, we are raising the bar for safety and performance both on the track today, and in the street tomorrow."

In the world of autonomous racing, the importance of reliable sensors cannot be overstated. They are the eyes of the vehicle, constantly scanning the environment to detect obstacles, track competitors, and inform strategic decisions. In such high-speed scenarios, the ability to predict and avoid potential crashes is paramount. The Falcon K LiDAR sensor ensures that vehicles are not just fast, but also smart and safe, effectively reducing the risk of collisions and enhancing the overall safety of the race.
