Share

QUEBEC CITY, Nov. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LeddarTech®, a global leader in Level 1-5 ADAS and AD sensing technology, is proud to have been selected by the MILLA Group as the supplier for their cocoon LiDAR sensor. The MILLA Group has selected the award-winning Leddar™ Pixell as the front-end LiDAR for their MILLA POD autonomous shuttle.

The Leddar Pixell is the most robust solid-state LiDAR on the market. This sensor provides a 180-degree horizontal field of view (FoV) and can offer 360-degree coverage of a vehicle when four modules are used. The Leddar Pixell offers best-in-class shock and vibration resistance meeting ISO 16750-3 requirements and complies with the SAE J1455 standard for heavy dust intrusion, positioning the Leddar Pixell for use in the industrial vehicle markets requiring robustness and durability. Also, the Leddar Pixell is IP67 certified and provides an MTBF of more than 148,000 hours, which is equivalent to ten times that of scanning solutions. The Leddar Pixell is ideal for shuttles, robotaxis, ADVs, and other off-road vehicles used in construction, agriculture, and mining applications.

“MILLA has engaged with LeddarTech on the robust Leddar Pixell for our MILLA POD. The POD is an innovative autonomous shuttle that has been deployed throughout Europe and North America,” stated Éric Gendarme, Managing director of the MILLA Group. “The radical changes we implemented in the POD related to the design lend themselves well to the Leddar Pixell; this LiDAR enables us to have a 180-degree field of view, which increases safety and overall reliability of our autonomous shuttle.” Mr. Gendarme continued: “The MILLA POD, equipped with Leddar Pixell along with the other autonomous technology components that make up our operating systems, was submitted to the RATP Group, a State-owned public transport operator operating in 13 countries and on four continents, tasked with evaluating and qualifying autonomous public transportation vehicles. The RATP reported that the operating systems of the MILLA POD, which included the Leddar Pixell, meet the stringent qualification requirements,” Mr. Gendarme concluded.

“We are honored to be a chosen supplier to MILLA Group for our sensing technology,” stated Frantz Saintellemy, President and COO of LeddarTech. “The MILLA Group represents a forward-thinking organization that tackles autonomous shuttle technology with a new and innovative approach; we are proud that our Leddar Pixell contributed to MILLA’s technical certification with the RATP Group,” Mr. Saintellemy concluded.

PALM BEACH, Fla., March 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McWhorter, the luminary investor with an eye for luxury, delivers a blistering retort to Nelson Peltz's antiquated views, revealing his profound misunderstanding of Disney's status as a pinnacle of luxury and innovation. With surgical precision, McWhorter exposes Peltz's detachment from diverse communities and insular worldview, highlighting the glaring gap between Peltz's outdated mindset and Disney's forward-thinking ethos. "At 81 years old, Nelson Peltz's understanding of luxury seems frozen in time, much like the era in which he was born," McWhorter declares. "His failure to grasp the true essence of Disney as a luxury brand underscores his limited exposure to diverse perspectives and his residence within the protective bubble of privilege." In a scathing indictment of Peltz's remarks, McWhorter dismantles the notion that Disney's inclusive storytelling is incompatible with luxury, asserting that diversity and representation are

PALM BEACH, Calif., March 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- C.K. McWhorter, chairman of the McWhorter Foundation, voices concerns over outdated perspectives in corporate leadership, exemplified by recent remarks from Nelson Peltz regarding Disney's film direction. After encountering instances of racism and exclusivity on Town of Palm Beach Island (known as home to Jeffrey Epstein, Nelson Peltz and others), McWhorter reflects on the disconnect between elite boardroom discussions and the realities faced by diverse communities.
