Arbe reveals 360-degree radar for self-driving vehicles at CES 2023

Israeli company Arbe has showcased its latest solution for autonomous vehicles (AVs) at CES in Las Vegas.

The Tel Aviv-based firm has revealed its 360° Radar-Based Perception tool, which it says raises the bar for self-driving vehicles.

Until now, 360-degree tracking has tended to rely on imaging. But Arbe’s tech uses a suite of radars to provide what it claims is the first artificial intelligence-based integrated analysis of the entire surroundings of a vehicle.

The radars can identify, classify and monitor objects, and the data they capture is processed in real-time to create a full free space map around the vehicle, as well as provide analysis of potential hazards.

This delivers a complete understanding of the driving environment, raising accuracy and safety. There is an increased awareness, for example, of potential hazards emerging from the side or rear of an AV, and blind spots are essentially eliminated.

This functionality is delivered by the radars “overlapping,” with objects of interest tracked smoothly from one unit to the next and their position validated by two different perception algorithms.
