The IMX479, a stacked direct Time of Flight (dToF) SPAD depth sensor designed for automotive LiDAR applications.

 

The innovation delivers high-resolution and high-speed performance, contributing to safer and more reliable mobility for the future.

Key highlights:

  • Unmatched Speed and Resolution: Up to 20fps frame rate and 520 dToF pixels, offering precise 3D object detection even at 250m.
  • Enhanced Distance Resolution: Achieves 5cm intervals for superior accuracy.
  • Long-range detection: High photon detection efficiency (37%) enables object recognition up to 300m, even in bright conditions.

 

With its cutting-edge technology, the IMX479 is set to accelerate advancements in ADAS and automated driving, paving the way for Level 3 autonomy and beyond.

Sample availability: Autumn 2025
