Aeva inks sensor deal with Nikon for industrial machines
Aeva Technologies on Monday said that it has signed a deal to produce sensors for Nikon industrial machines that can scan objects like cars coming off an assembly line for microscopic defects. Mountain View, California-based Aeva develops what are called lidar sensors, which are often found on cars with driver-assistance features to help the vehicle get a three-dimensional view of the road. While Aeva is targeting the automotive market, its sensor can also be used in other applications that require three-dimensional scanning, and in 2021 the company said it was working with Nikon to improve the Japanese firm's industrial equipment.
