Blickfeld is a German tech company specialising in cutting-edge LiDAR solutions. Their products are used in various industries, including security, industrial automation, and crowd analytics, where precise and reliable data collection is crucial. 

Here’s how ESCATEC supported the development of their Qb2 device, the world’s first 3D LiDAR sensor, with software stack and WiFi connectivity all in one device.

 

Blickfeld creates a smarter, safer and more efficient world

  

Blickfeld creates innovative hardware and software perception solutions, generating actionable data to analyse, optimise and automate the world around us. The Qb2 is their latest, and most sophisticated LiDAR sensor to date.

 

Compared to their previous offerings, the Qb2 offers advanced functionalities and performance parameters including enhanced adaptable field of view (FoV), detection range and scan pattern, plus higher resolution and accuracy.

But achieving that leap in field of view and resolution required close collaboration with MOEMS experts at ESCATEC to get just right.

 

"To deliver on these new requirements Blickfeld needed a partner capable of not only handling the complex micro-assembly process required for their next generation beam deflector but also support our transition from prototype to mass production." Florian Bindges, Head of Operations at Blickfeld.
