To get the most out of the system, lidar units are paired with high-resolution cameras and modern radar. Together they form a full-fledged multi-sensor suite that can precisely locate objects and measure distance even in foul weather or poor visibility. It’s a pragmatic setup for stable perception.

Innoviz sensors are designed specifically for heavy-duty applications, with longevity, reliability, and minimized maintenance costs in focus. They meet strict quality standards and are suitable for integration into high-capacity commercial vehicles. That emphasis on durability is exactly what long-haul fleets value when downtime is costly.

The first vehicle to receive this advanced system will be the updated Freightliner Cascadia heavy truck. The new autonomous variant is aimed primarily at the North American market, since that’s where infrastructure for automated transport is developing most actively. The vehicle control system is based on specialized software developed by Daimler subsidiary Torc Robotics. The North American focus feels logical given the ongoing build-out.
