The increasing demand for autonomous machines is challenging well-known safety and perception technologies. Compared to indoor with a high potential for standardization, outdoor applications require a huge diversity of perception, decision-making and safety functions. The key for this is highly customizable sensors, providing both raw measurement data for customer-specific solutions but also intelligent integrated detection-logics while balancing the requirements of safety and availability under challenging conditions. With a combination of customer-centric tailored LiDAR, Radar and Vision sensors as well as corresponding safety functions for high availability the diverse challenges can be met, making outdoor autonomy for mobile machines happen now!
