Hesai Technology ATX Auto-Grade Compact 120° High-Resolution Long-Range Lidar

Hesai ATX: Smaller Size Greater Performance

Hesai's ATX is a next-generation 116-channel hybrid solid-state lidar engineered to provide high-resolution 3D perception for mass-produced autonomous vehicles and advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS). Unlike traditional mechanical sensors, the ATX utilizes a 1-D rotating mirror architecture, offering a sleek, compact form factor that is only 30 mm in height for seamless vehicle integration. It delivers a wide 120° horizontal field of view and a specialized Region of Interest (ROI) with a vertical resolution of 0.1°, providing enhanced detail for long-range object detection up to 200 meters.

Designed for the rigors of the automotive environment, the ATX features IP6K7 and IP6K9K ingress protection, an operating temperature range of –40°C to 85°C, and sophisticated gPTP (802.1AS) synchronization. The sensor outputs a dense point cloud of up to 1.74 million points per second, enriched with Intelligent Point Cloud Engine (IPE) flags to assist in filtering noise, blooming, and interstitial points. With its low power consumption of 10 W and robust automotive Ethernet connectivity, the ATX is the ideal flagship solution for safety-critical applications requiring ultra-high reliability and precision.

Why Choose the ATX Auto-Grade Compact 120° High-Resolution Long-Range Lidar?

The Hesai ATX is a high-performance, automotive-grade hybrid solid-state lidar designed for seamless integration and superior long-range perception.

Superior Integration and Compact Design

Unlike bulky mechanical sensors, the ATX features a low-profile design with a height of only 30 mm, allowing it to be easily integrated into a vehicle’s roofline or behind the windshield without disrupting aerodynamics. Despite its compact size, it offers a wide 120° horizontal field of view, providing a massive scanning area for critical forward-facing detection.

High-Resolution Perception for Safety

With a horizontal resolution of 0.08° and a vertical resolution of 0.1° in its specialized Region of Interest (ROI), the ATX delivers high-density point clouds. This level of precision allows the autonomous driving system to accurately perceive and classify small objects, road debris, or pedestrians at distances up to 200 meters (at 10% reflectivity), providing essential reaction time for high-speed driving.

Robust Performance in Challenging Conditions

The ATX is engineered to maintain a maximum ranging capability of 198 meters even under demanding environmental conditions. It is built to automotive-grade standards with IP6K7 and IP6K9K ingress protection and operates reliably in extreme temperatures ranging from –40°C to 85°C. To ensure clear data in winter conditions, the ATX supports active heating of the optical window to eliminate ice and frost.

IPE: Intelligent Point Cloud Engine

The ATX comes equipped with an Intelligent Point Cloud Engine (IPE) that provides advanced real-time data filtering and status flags:

  • Discrete Noise Point Level: Assigns a confidence value (0–15) to help the system identify and filter out environmental noise like rain, fog, dust, or exhaust fumes.

  • Interstitial Points Flag: Identifies false points that occur when a laser beam partially hits the edge of a foreground target and the rest hits a background target.

  • Blooming Point Flag: Detects and flags suspected "blooming" or flare effects caused by highly reflective surfaces.

  • Point Cloud Enhancement: Flags data points with lower confidence to assist the application system in extracting the most reliable environment data.
