SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#3Dlidarintegrationwithgentec--Quanergy Systems, Inc., a leading provider of LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors and smart perception solutions, today announced a new installation of Smart LiDAR solution to improve crosswalk safety in school zones in Seoul, South Korea. This recent deployment is enabled by Quanergy�s partnership with integrator iCent.

�Many people hear the word �LiDAR,� and they think autonomous cars,� said Enzo Signore, CMO at Quanergy, �But there�s so much more the technology can do to improve the quality of life for people around the world. We�re excited to leverage our expertise in LiDAR to make school zones safer and more efficient.�

The 3D LiDAR-based Smart Safety School Zone solution actively monitors the movement of objects�including people and vehicles�in crosswalks to protect pedestrian safety and prevent accidents. In the deployment in Seoul, South Korea, M-Series LiDAR sensors from Quanergy are installed at school crosswalks in the local government of Nowon-Gu. The sensors gather real-time data about the surrounding environment including patterns in vehicle traffic, vehicle speed, pedestrian numbers, and more.

Quanergy�s QORTEX DTC� perception software analyzes the raw data and routes it to iCent�s iSaver software platform for further evaluation. The data is then assessed to determine the actions necessary to ensure safety. With more reliable data to work with, government officials in Nowon-Gu can more easily establish effective traffic policies and install the best safety technologies to keep the crosswalk safe for drivers and pedestrians alike.

Quanergy�s LiDAR sensors provide 360� coverage and 95%+ accuracy to deliver reliable data with just one sensor per crosswalk. Because the solution requires a limited number of devices to install and maintain, the LiDAR-based platform provides a low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). The local government of Nowon-Gu, for example, saved on their budget by replacing their existing traffic monitoring system with Quanergy�s LiDAR-based solution integrated with iCent�s iSaver.

�With Quanergy�s AI-based 3D LiDAR solution combined with iSaver from iCENT, we are able to move one step closer to establish safety policy for the children,� said Seung Rok Oh, alderman of Nowon-Gu.

Compared to alternative technologies, Quanergy LiDAR solutions provides enhanced insights including situational awareness, broader coverage, and increased accuracy. For example, Quanergy LiDAR solutions can accurately detect a person standing in a blind zone�a situation that frequently contributes to pedestrian-involved accidents. In addition, LiDAR sensors perform reliably in any environmental condition, including inclement weather and extremely bright or low light.
