NESS ZIONA, Israel, April 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Newsight Imaging Ltd. (“Newsight”), a leading semiconductor innovator developing proprietary 3D machine vision sensors, spectral vision chips and systems, today announced the launch of a new member of the Multi-Triangulation (MT) LiDAR reference design family, the MT LiDAR 3.1 reference design.

MT LiDAR 3.1 is based on the NSI9000 image sensor with 1024X480 pixel resolution and on-chip peak detection feature demonstrating Newsight’s multi-triangulation technology specially designed for ultra-high accuracy for short-distance measurement applications. The new reference design enables full 3D mapping by a single scan, with 480 depth points, supporting a depth resolution of 20um – 1mm, with the ability to achieve hundreds of frames per second, making it ideal for ongoing production and structure inspection control. MT LiDAR 3.1 is offered to customers for rapid development of their full solution based on Newsight chips and technology, and is highly configurable for different applications and very flexible in coping with different scenarios and lighting conditions.

Newsight’s MT LiDAR 3.1 reference design is now available for purchase. Newsight will present the MT LiDAR 3.1 reference design at the Hannover Messe conference, at Hall 17, booth no. B52, on 17-20 April, taking place in Hannover Germany. Newsight was selected to showcase its technology by GINSUM (German Israeli Network of Startup and Mittelstand) that is funded by the German government and aims to match Israeli startups with companies and business stakeholders in Germany.
