HESAI Pandar128 Long Range Automotive High Performance Lidar Sensor

The HESAI Pandar128 is an automotive grade 128 channel 360° high performance long range LiDAR designed for autonomous driving, robotaxi, and robotrucking applications. It is built for vehicles that need full surround 3D perception, long range object detection, and dense point cloud output from a single rotating LiDAR sensor.

Yes. With a 360° horizontal and 40° vertical field of view, it differs from forward facing 120° automotive LiDAR sensors by providing full surround perception for autonomous vehicle platforms.

It combines 360° coverage, 200 m detection at 10 percent reflectivity, and up to 6,912,000 points per second in dual return mode — helping autonomous vehicles perceive surrounding traffic, pedestrians, lane edge objects, and obstacles over a wider operating area.

Listed ranging capability is 200 m at 10 percent reflectivity. This long range detection gives autonomous driving systems more reaction time, especially in medium to high speed driving scenarios.

The sensor generates 3,456,000 points per second in single return mode and 6,912,000 in dual return mode. This high point rate supports image like point cloud performance, capturing denser 3D detail from the surrounding environment.

With 128 channels and up to 0.1° horizontal and 0.125° vertical angular resolution, it produces denser point clouds and clearer object shapes than lower channel mechanical LiDAR sensors.

Yes. High resolution, high point rate, and strong reflectivity accuracy help autonomous systems distinguish vehicles, pedestrians, road edges, traffic signs, and surrounding structures.

Yes. Each emitted pulse can be uniquely identified — important in environments with multiple LiDAR systems or highly reflective surfaces that may introduce sensing noise.

Yes. Validation covers UV aging, high temperature, IP6K7 and IP6K9K protection, mechanical shock, salt spray, thermal shock with water splash, low temperature wakeup, humid heat cycling, vibration with thermal cycling, and electrical and electronic testing, alongside automotive grade reliability standards and extended operational lifetime.

Choose the Pandar128 when you need a 128 channel 360° long range LiDAR for autonomous vehicle surround perception, robotaxi development, robotrucking, and high density point cloud generation — especially when full 360° coverage and high point rate matter more than compact forward facing sensor integration.
