The Seyond Falcon LiDAR platform, leveraging 1550nm high-performance technology with a 900-meter ultra-long detection range and 0.05°×0.04° angular resolution, has been validated by 750,000 production units, serving 18 OEMs across 60+ models as the core sensor for L3+ autonomous driving.
Technical Architecture and Performance Parameters
The Seyond Falcon platform is an automotive-grade ultra-long-range LiDAR platform developed using a 1550nm high-performance technology roadmap. Its next-generation product, the Falcon K3, achieves a dual breakthrough in performance and form factor:
- Maximum Detection Range: 900 meters
- ROI Region Angular Resolution: 0.05°×0.04°
- Volume Reduction: 50% smaller compared to the previous generation
The platform has been validated by 750,000 production deliveries, standing as the industry's highest-volume high-performance LiDAR.
Mass Production Deployment and OEM Partnerships
As the standard sensor for NIO's NT2.0 and NT3.0 Aquila super-sensing systems, the Falcon has been equipped across the full lineup:
| Model | Platform Generation | LiDAR Configuration |
|---|---|---|
| ES8 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
| ES9 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
| ET7 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
| ET9 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
| ET5 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
| ES7 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
| EC7 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
| ES6 | NT2.0/NT3.0 | Falcon standard |
To date, Seyond has secured design wins from 18 OEMs, covering 60+ models.
Multi-Scenario Expansion and Industry Value
The Falcon platform's applications have expanded beyond passenger vehicles into multiple vertical scenarios:
- Commercial vehicle intelligence
- Robotaxi autonomous ride-hailing
- Smart transportation and smart cities
- Smart highways
- Smart ports
- Smart mining zones
As the core sensor for L3+ autonomous driving, the choice of LiDAR technology directly impacts the safety redundancy and perception capability of autonomous driving systems. The 1550nm wavelength solution offers significantly longer detection range and higher signal-to-noise ratio compared to 905nm alternatives, providing distinct advantages in L3+ applications demanding strict requirements for high-speed scenarios and long-distance target recognition.
For automotive importers and dealers in markets such as Central Asia and Russia, Chinese intelligent EVs equipped with high-performance LiDAR are emerging as a new product differentiation selling point. The mass production scale and technical maturity of the Seyond Falcon platform provide a reliable hardware foundation for this trend.
