Idriverplus is the latest company to join the Automated with Velodyne ecosystem. The collaboration sees Velodyne work with Idriverplus to “innovate and promote its autonomous vehicles including street cleaners, passenger cars and logistics vehicles,” the two companies having signed a multi-year sales agreement for Idriverplus to use Puck sensors for autonomous vehicles.
In the first instance, two Puck sensors are to be installed in Idriverplus’ street cleaning vehicle, the WOXIAOBAI, which is in service in Germany, Japan, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Sweden and the US.
Anand Gopalan, CEO of Velodyne Lidar, said, “Idriverplus autonomous vehicles provide a showcase example of how our lidar sensors enable companies to achieve the performance and scalability needed for mass commercialization.”
