Lidar prototype design platform circuit design reference for industrial 4.0, aerospace, automotive electronics, etc.

Analog Devices Inc. Lidar Prototype Design Platform Designed for developing software and algorithms for various applications. This platform can be used on the FPGA development board that has enabled FMC HPC connector and JESD204B supporting. The system hardware of the Lidar prototype design platform includes a data acquisition (DAQ) board, a laser emitter board, and an AFE receiver board. The platform has 1D non-scanning LIDAR, 16 pixel level resolution, up to 1GSPS data sample, for MATLAB and PYTHON packn, and a Lidar-specific API. The AD-FMCLIDAR1-EBZ Lidar Prototype Design Platform also provides a complete open source software framework and a standardized FMC connector that can be inserted into the selected FPGA board. The development support of this platform includes industry standard Linux Industrial I / O (IIO), custom C / C +, Python, Simulink®, Matlab®, and C # applications. DAQ board The DAQ board contains the AD9094 four-channel ADC and clock control for the entire system. The board has a connector interface that conforms to the FMC standard, which helps connect the board to any FPGA development board. The laser emitter board and the AFE receiver plate are directly connected to the DAQ board. characteristic Complete system hardware includes: Data Acquisition (DAQ) Laser laser board AFE receiver board 1D non-scanning Lidar 16 pixel level resolution Data sampling rate on 4 separate channels is up to 1GSPS Standardization FMC connector can insert the selected FPGA board Open box, ready to use for target range measurement Complete open source software framework An authoritulated JESD204B interface framework for determining data to the host Packaging for Matlab and Python System control and data acquisition using LIDAR-specific API Platform development environmental support includes: Industry standard Linux Industrial I / O (IIO) application Matlab® SIMULINK® Custom C / C + Python C # app HDL reference design and driver supporting zero-day development Main application Industry 4.0: Factory and warehouse areas are dangerous. Lidar has many moving parts such as robotic arms and ground autonomous vehicles (AGV), which measures the distance from the system to the object to be concerned, changing the route to avoid collision, and can even shut down when detecting a safety hazard. In automatic driving applications such as forklifts, the LIDAR solution can be used as a security curtain. In the smart network, Lidar can be used to use the loading amount estimation of long-distance truck transportation and carrier vehicles. Aerospace and defense: Drone Aircraft (UAV or UAV) can use LIDAR to perform high measurement, dynamic flight control, object detection and tracking, and anti-collision control. car: LIDAR can significantly enhance car safety and driving assistance. Applications include anti-collision, side blind spot detection, emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, dynamic suspension control, and parking assist. Be Article is reproduced in the network
