Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems selected Aeva to integrate its 4D LiDAR sensors and perception software into next-generation collision mitigation systems for Class 8 heavy trucks. Aeva's 4D LiDAR provides instant velocity detection per pixel and long-range performance exceeding 300 meters, enabling earlier hazard detection at highway speeds. The partnership aims to enhance safety for the estimated 3.5 million Class 8 trucks operating on US highways. The integration follows growing regulatory and insurance pressure for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) in commercial vehicles. The announcement signals accelerating adoption of autonomous-ready sensing technology in freight trucking, a key enabler for eventual autonomous long-haul operations.
