Frequently Asked Questions
What is the HESAI FTX LiDAR used for?
The HESAI FTX is an automotive grade fully solid state short range LiDAR designed for blind spot perception, ADAS, autonomous mobility, robotics, and industrial applications. It is built to detect nearby objects around vehicles and robots where wide angle short range sensing is critical.
Why is it important for blind spot detection?
It combines an ultra wide field of view, high resolution, and a compact solid state design, helping detect nearby obstacles such as pedestrians, e bikes, strollers, and low objects that limited angle sensors can miss.
Is it a solid state LiDAR?
Yes. It is a fully solid state short range LiDAR using electronic scanning technology, which enables a compact form factor and wide field of view.
What is the field of view of the HESAI FTX?
Configurations are listed around 180° horizontal and 140° vertical coverage. This wide view helps cover close range blind spots around vehicles, robots, and autonomous platforms.
What is the detection range?
As a short range LiDAR, configurations offer around 20 m to 30 m detection at 10 percent reflectivity depending on the field of view variant — suitable for close range object detection around vehicles and robots.
What makes it suitable for ADAS applications?
It is automotive grade, fully solid state, compact, and power efficient. The wide field of view and high point rate support near vehicle object detection in scenarios such as lane changes, parking, turning, and close range maneuvering.
Can it be used in robotics and AGV or AMR systems?
Yes. It suits AGV, AMR, delivery robots, lawn mowing robots, embodied intelligence, and other robotics applications. Compact size, low power consumption, and wide short range perception make it effective for detecting nearby obstacles in dynamic environments.
How compact is the design?
The lightweight structure weighs approximately 160 g to 200 g depending on configuration, and embedded installation with a small exposed optical window makes it easier to integrate into vehicle or robot body designs.
Is it suitable for harsh automotive and outdoor conditions?
Yes. Validation covers UV aging, high temperature, mechanical shock, thermal shock with water splash, low temperature wakeup, humid heat cycling, vibration with thermal cycling, and electrical and electronic testing, with IP6K7 and IP6K9K protection.
When should a team choose the HESAI FTX instead of a long range LiDAR?
Choose the FTX when the main need is short range, wide angle blind spot perception rather than long distance forward sensing — especially for ADAS blind spots, autonomous parking, close range object detection, delivery robots, AGV and AMR navigation, and compact robotic platforms.
