Dolph Pick: Quanergy Smart Sensing

Upon encountering the term LiDAR (light detection and ranging) you might think of the transportation or mapping industry — but not likely security. You would be wrong. The Q-Guard LiDAR system from Quanergy is a good complement to existing surveillance systems for complete accuracy. These systems can be used for border security, site and infrastructure monitoring, automated intruder detection and security event planning. The security solution consists of Quanergy’s M8 LiDAR sensor and QORTEX artificial intelligence perception software. According to the manufacturer, the product incorporates multiple LiDARs to create a virtual 3D point cloud to easily detect, classify and track physical security breaches in any environment, day or night. quanergy.com
