World’s smallest wide angle near-range lidar sensor – Cepton and TOP-electronics

Nova is the world’s smallest wide angle near-range lidar sensor intended to address major gaps in proximity detection of objects with current sensor technologies. Featuring best-in-class, high resolution 3D imaging with a high field of view (FOV), Nova sets a benchmark with its unprecedented combination of compactness, FOV coverage and affordability.

The Nova is ideally suited for advanced driver assistant systems (ADAS), autonomous vehicles (AVs), as well as autonomous ground vehicles (AGVs) and smart industrial applications.
