About the Company

Aeva

4D LiDAR sensors with velocity detection

Aeva designs and sells perception sensors, focusing on 4D LiDAR that measures both the velocity and 3D position of objects. The sensors are built by integrating all core LiDAR components onto a silicon photonics chip, creating a compact, efficient module. This technology is applied across automated driving, industrial robotics, consumer electronics, consumer health, and security to improve safety, efficiency, and functionality of autonomous systems. Unlike many competitors that offer traditional 3D sensing, Aeva’s 4D capability provides richer environmental data that helps autonomous systems detect motion and position at once. The company’s business model centers on developing, producing, and selling these sensors to businesses, potentially partnering with other firms to integrate the tech into a wider range of products. Aeva’s goal is to advance autonomous capabilities by delivering practical, scalable sensing solutions that enhance perception and safety across multiple industries.
