Quanergy koopt OTUS People Tracker van Raytheon BBN Technologies voor verstevigde positie als aanbieder complete LiDAR-systemen
SUNNYVALE, Californië–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Quanergy Systems, Inc., een toonaangevende aanbieder van solid-state LiDAR-sensoren en intelligente waarnemingssystemen, heeft vandaag bekendgemaakt de software OTUS People Tracker te hebben overgenomen van Raytheon BBN Technologies. Deze software vult het bestaande softwareportfolio van Quanergy aan. In combinatie met LiDAR-sensoren van Quanergy creëert OTUS People Tracker een integraal hardware- en softwaresysteem voor geavanceerde opsporings- en trackingtoepassingen voor beveiliging en geautomatiseerd rijden.
OTUS maakt gebruik van geavanceerde algoritmes voor menselijke waarneming, waarmee het mensen identificeert en volgt voor de beveiliging van drukke plekken. In combinatie met Quanergy LiDAR-sensoren reikt de actieradius van POTUS verder dan honderd meter. Het systeem bevat segmenteringsfuncties voor de herkenning van personen en functies voor het weglaten van achtergrond, clustering van objecten, geavanceerde samenvoeging en opdeling van algoritmes, doorlopende trackingalgoritmes en andere geavanceerde functies voor de controle van menigtes. Ondersteuning voor meerdere focuszones is inbegrepen, waardoor gebruikers een fijnmazig overzicht bewaren.

SUNNYVALE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Quanergy Systems, Inc., the leading provider of solid state LiDAR sensors and smart sensing solutions, today announced the acquisition of OTUS People Tracker software from Raytheon BBN Technologies. The software complements Quanergy’s existing software portfolio and, when used with Quanergy’s LiDAR sensors, creates an integrated hardware and software solution for advanced people detection and tracking applications within the security and autonomous driving markets. OTUS uses sophisticated human perception algorithms to identify and track people for safety and security in crowded environments at ranges exceeding 100 meters when used with Quanergy LiDAR sensors. The system features segmentation techniques identifying humans, background extraction, object clustering, sophisticated merge and split algorithms, persistent tracking algorithms, and other advanced features supporting robust crowd control. Support for multiple zones of interest is included, allowing users fine control over active monitoring. With the acquisition, Quanergy is offering the most intelligent and complete solution to track people in 3D and in real-time over large spaces. The combined solution has advantages over camera systems including the ability to work in any weather or lighting conditions with fewer false alarms, along with the reduction of equipment and labor costs. “The acquisition of Raytheon BBN’s OTUS People Tracker software is a significant milestone in Quanergy’s strategy and long term road map for LiDAR integration into larger transportation and automation platforms,” said Dr. Louay Eldada, Quanergy CEO. “Raytheon BBN is a recognized leader in the space, with the most advanced solution, and Quanergy is now further positioned to expand its footprint and accelerate its ability to deliver new levels of product performance.” The software is the foundation for Q-Guard, Quanergy’s 3D perimeter fencing and intrusion detection system. The company will demonstrate Q-Guard and the capability for tracking human subjects at the upcoming security tradeshow, ASIS 2016, being held September 12-15 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. The demo will show how Quanergy LiDAR sensors and software incorporating the OTUS People Tracker capability can track people persistently, send commands to PTZ cameras and enable the cameras to focus on subjects. Quanergy will be in Booth 3078. About Quanergy Systems, Inc. Quanergy Systems, Inc. was founded in 2012 and builds on decades of experience of its team in the areas of optics, photonics, optoelectronics, artificial intelligence software, and control systems. Headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, in the heart of Silicon Valley, Quanergy offers the leading solid state LiDAR sensors and software for real-time capture and processing of high-definition 3D mapping data and object detection, tracking, and classification. Application areas include transportation, security, mapping and industrial automation. Quanergy’s LiDARs lead in six key commercialization areas (price, performance, reliability, size, weight, power efficiency) while meeting the mass deployment requirements of durability and dependability using solid state technology.
