Lumotive Powers E-Photonics' Launch of Software-Defined LiDAR Solutions for ITS Applications at ITS Spain
Friday, May 23, 2025
REDMOND, Wash., May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lumotive, a leader in programmable optical semiconductor technology, today announced that its transformative beam-steering technology is powering E-Photonics' newly launched infrastructure monitoring solutions for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). E-Photonics will debut its next-generation LiDAR-based ITS solutions this May at the ITS Show in Spain, bringing unprecedented flexibility, reliability, and scalability to applications such as parking management, traffic control, and pedestrian monitoring.
"E-Photonics' launch demonstrates the real-world impact of software-defined LiDAR in transforming intelligent transportation systems," said Dr. Sam Heidari, CEO of Lumotive. "By building on Lumotive's solid-state beam steering technology, they are delivering flexible, scalable solutions that meet the evolving needs of smart infrastructure projects across Europe and the Middle East. This collaboration is a clear example of how our platform accelerates innovation and deployment for partners worldwide."
Enabling Breakthrough Smart Infrastructure Solutions
E-Photonics' newly introduced product suite--designed for vehicle classification, people flow analytics, toll booth monitoring, and smart parking--is built using Lumotive's solid-state reference designs and software-defined beam-steering technology. The solutions enable customers to address a wide variety of deployment scenarios with a single hardware platform that can be dynamically configured via software.
Key Highlights:
-- One Sensor, Many Applications: Lumotive's software-defined beam steering
allows E-Photonics' systems to adapt to various operational
scenarios--different mounting angles, fields of view, and environmental
conditions--without requiring hardware modifications.
-- Reduced Operational Costs: Remote calibration and software updates
minimize manual intervention and lower maintenance and lifecycle costs.
-- Rugged and Reliable: Lumotive's solid-state architecture ensures
durability and performance in harsh outdoor environments.
Optimized for a Range of ITS Applications
Leveraging Lumotive's technology, E-Photonics' solutions are tailored to optimize key ITS applications:
-- Traffic Monitoring and Toll Booths: High-frame-rate configurations
support real-time vehicle speed and classification analysis.
-- Parking Structures: Wide field-of-view (FoV) modes enable comprehensive
area coverage with fewer sensors.
-- Pedestrian Monitoring: Adaptive scanning modes enhance resolution and
performance in crowded environments.
"Working with Lumotive has enabled us to bring truly innovative perception solutions to market in record time," said Mohammad Alghaith, CEO of E-Photonics. "The flexibility and scalability of Lumotive's technology has allowed us to address a wide range of ITS use cases with a single hardware platform--this is a game-changer for smart infrastructure in Europe and the Middle East."
The collaboration between Lumotive and E-Photonics was initiated earlier this year following E-Photonics' public debut at LEAP 2025 in Riyadh. The unveiling at ITS Spain marks the first commercial product launch resulting from the partnership, showcasing the power of Lumotive's software-defined LiDAR platform in real-world ITS deployments across Europe and the Middle East.
