AAEye designs and sells LiDAR-based perception systems for autonomous vehicles. Its iDAR platform combines 2D/3D sensing with solid-state LiDAR and software to interpret scenes in real time. The system integrates hardware and perception software as one package, sold or licensed to automakers and tech companies with ongoing service agreements. Its goal is to improve LiDAR range and reliability to make autonomous driving safer and more efficient.

AEye LiDAR joins Liteon camera fusion demo in Barcelona. AEye and Liteon are making the case that no single sensor can carry automated driving, and that fusion is becoming the baseline * September 24, 2026 AEye is supplying its Apollo LiDAR for a Liteon vehicle demonstration at the InCabin Europe 2026 show in Barcelona, where the sensor's 3D point-cloud data is merged with Liteon camera imagery into one perception output. The pairing shows how each sensing type can fill gaps left by the other in driver assistance and automated driving. Cameras record rich visual detail, while LiDAR precisely maps the physical environment in three dimensions. Fusing both gives perception software more context for identifying objects, a need that grows as automakers add more complex assistance features. Apollo is a compact, long-range unit whose performance is set through software. Integrators can tune its sensing to particular applications without touching the hardware, a flexibility AEye pitches squarely at automotive programmes. "Tomorrow's vehicles will require perception systems that can understand the world with greater accuracy, range, and context," Matt Fisch, Chairman and Chief Executive of AEye, said. "Cameras and LiDAR each provide valuable information about the driving environment, and bringing those capabilities together can create a more complete picture for the vehicle. We're excited to have Apollo be part of Liteon's demonstration at InCabin Europe." At the show, which runs from 22 to 24 September 2026, the demonstration system processes both data streams into a single visualisation of the surroundings. Visitors can see the setup throughout the event.
AEye, a software-defined lidar solutions provider, is partnering with Swedish defence technology company AB Swiftstrike AI to integrate its STRATOS lidar into counter-unmanned aircraft systems. The collaboration aims to improve detection of small drone threats by combining Swiftstrike's autonomous, multi-sensor platform with AEye's ultra-long-range lidar technology. The partnership addresses the growing challenge of detecting increasingly smaller, cheaper, and more autonomous drones that often operate without radio links, limiting traditional detection methods. AEye's lidar provides three-dimensional detection capabilities that don't rely on radio-frequency signals. Fortune Business Insights projects the global counter-UAS market will grow from approximately $14.4 billion in 2026 to $55.3 billion by 2034. The integration supports AEye's expansion into the defence sector and positions both companies to serve military, government, and critical-infrastructure security customers.
AEye, a lidar and sensing technology company, has entered into an at-the-market sales agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners to offer up to $50 million of common stock. The agreement, dated 15 September 2026, allows the company to sell shares at market prices over 36 months with no obligation to complete any sales. The company simultaneously terminated its previous ATM agreement with A.G.P. from 12 September 2024, incurring no early termination penalties. A.G.P. will receive up to 3% commission on gross proceeds, whilst Craig-Hallum Capital Group serves as financial adviser for up to 1% of proceeds. AEye intends to use net proceeds for working capital, research and development, and commercial expansion in aerospace, defence, and infrastructure markets. The Pleasanton, California-based company retains full discretion over pricing, timing, and volume of any share sales.
AEye, a lidar solutions provider, announced significant commercial progress in a letter to stockholders. The company secured a multi-million-dollar contract with Lunar Outpost, backed by NASA funding, to deploy its Apollo lidar on the Pegasus Lunar Terrain Vehicle for the Artemis mission. AEye reported record commercial engagement with 25 revenue-generating customers, a 19% increase since Q1. Revenue grew approximately nine-fold year-over-year and roughly doubled sequentially, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of growth. First-half 2026 revenue already exceeded full-year 2025 results. The company appointed Laura Wrisley as Chief Revenue Officer to scale commercial operations. New contracts include a development agreement with Alive3D for sports analytics applications. Defence engagements doubled quarter-over-quarter, whilst automotive and trucking programmes continue advancing. AEye maintains a substantial cash position with virtually no debt.
AEye to Present at the 28th Annual H.C. Wainwright Global Investment Conference TMCnet News [September 03, 2026] | / | AEye to Present at the 28th Annual H.C. Wainwright Global Investment Conference AEye, Inc. (Nasdaq: LIDR), a global leader in software-defined, high-performance lidar solutions, today announced that CFO Conor Tierney will present and host one-on-one investor meetings at the 28th Annual H.C.
