Great article about Ouster customer Plus!
"Rather than dozens of trucks, we will have hundreds and thousands, tens of thousands of these trucks with Level 4 technology with drivers to monitor, test and validate,” David Liu, founder and CEO of Plus.
Ouster's L3 chip has 125M transistors, 21.46 GMACS of signal processing, and can process 5.2M points per second. It helps Ouster's sensors see up to 500 meters and produce the high resolution point clouds needed to power autonomy across all industries and applications.
Ouster is transforming the ITS market by bringing 3D detection of vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. Join us on April 22 to learn why cities are selecting Ouster's lidar solution to build safer streets and smarter traffic infrastructure.
