Why the ALTOS, Opsys' Industrial LiDAR, is perfect for the various needs of Smart Cities

Updated: Sep 19

LiDAR is the sensor technology for Smart Cities as it provides 4D actionable insights based on a real-time digital twin environment. It makes city planning more efficient and can transform legacy systems.


LiDAR also enhances the quality of life for city dwellers (increasing safety, decreasing congestion etc.) without compromising on privacy, as no demographic data is captured. 


Opsys’ industrial LiDAR, ALTOS (Advanced LiDAR Technology Opsys Systems), has no moving parts. This means it is more robust as there are no mechanical failures over time. Applications for Smart Cities are endless.


Lidar for smart cities

Benefits of Opsys' LiDAR for Smart Cities include:

  • Pure Solid State (camera-like): making it familiar and easy to install

  • A fourth dimension provided: intensity and ambient data captured via an infra red camera

  • Discrete: the small form factor eliminates the need for heavy specialized mounts

  • Removes concerns for citizen privacy: no biometric (demographic) data captured

  • Transforms legacy systems into smart systems: with actionable 4D insights

  • Smart design features: incl. POE, built in intelligence (no exotic materials used, so no supply concerns)

  • Extreme reliability: at an affordable cost for mass production.


Applications for Smart Cities are numerous, for example:


ALTOS: High-performance at low-cost

  • Opsys’ patented technology is semiconductor-based, making it extremely cost-effective as it only requires a small amount of power

  • No moving parts allows for 24/7 operation with no limitation for EOL performances/no mechanical failures over time, which also provides great value for money

  • Point by point scanning increases ‘signal to noise ratio’ and ‘single point probability of detection’

  • The LiDAR can operate in harsh environments, in a wide temperature range.
