At the CES2021 in January this year, RoboSense has officially unveiled the SOP version of the automotive-grade LiDAR RS-LiDAR-M1, which features a slim design, excellent performance, and reliable point cloud quality. Since July last year, the RS-LiDAR-M1 has successively received a number of orders for mass-production vehicle models around the world, among which, the first customer was an OEM from North America. In December last year, the RS-LiDAR-M1 samples were shipped to this OEM customer in batches, and became the world's first mass-production-ready automotive-grade MEMS solid-state LiDAR delivered.
Two days ago, Inceptio released the self-driving system "Xuanyuan" equipped with RoboSense solid-state LiDAR, and the two parties announced the partnership that the mass-produced L3 heavy-duty freight truck equipped with "Xuanyuan" system will be launched on the market by the end of 2021.
As a world-leading smart LiDAR supplier, RoboSense has reached in-depth cooperation with Inceptio from 2019 to provide high-performance automotive-grade MEMS solid-state LiDAR RS-LiDAR-M1 for Inceptio’s "Xuanyuan" system, the first full-stack self-developed autonomous trucking system for mass production. Inceptio develops the ULRS (ultra-long-range sensing), ARC (adaptive robust control) and FEAD (fuel-efficient autonomous driving) algorithms, and the ULRS can make the system perceive an ultra-long distance of up to 1,000 meters with a margin of error standing below 5%.
In June 2019, Inceptio has worked with Dongfeng Trucks and SINOTRUK respectively to developed L3 autonomous heavy-duty trucks. By the end of 2021, the mass-produced L3 heavy-duty trucks equipped with Inceptio’s "Xuanyuan" system with RoboSense LiDAR inside will be delivered to clients.

Trustd, the digital identity and credentials verification platform for transport and logistics, is bringing to market Know Your Carrier (KYC), a web-based verification tool that lets shippers and 3PLs get an instant risk signal on carriers quoting for work via email in seconds. Cargo crime across EMEA has risen 438% in three years. More than 108,000 supply chain thefts were recorded across the region in the last two years. Of the 5% that reported a financial loss, the combined value exceeded €1bn, equivalent to €1.3m every 24 hours. Know Your Carrier draws on Trustd's expertise in digital identity verification to address a problem that has until now had no industry-wide solution. The web-based tool plugs into existing workflows with no installation or integration. Users enter an email address and, where available, a VAT number. The tool checks email legitimacy and domain matching, business registration data, adverse media, sanctions and court judgments, and Trustd’s own growing network
