Hesai Technology与瑞士自动驾驶解决方案提供商Embotech AG和法国空间智能软件开发公司Outsight建立了战略合作关系。旨在将Hesai的高性能激光雷达与Outsight的高级感知软件进行集成，以增强Embotech的自动化车辆管理系统（AVM）。这一系统已部署在宝马德国的智能工厂中，用于自动驾驶的工厂内部应用。新合作伙伴关系的建立基于多年来的自动驾驶创新合作。这一集成解决方案已在宝马欧洲的三个工厂投入使用，支持生产和物流阶段的车辆自动化调度。计划将其扩展到宝马在欧洲和北美的工厂。
通过集成Hesai的激光雷达和Outsight的感知软件，旨在提高宝马工厂中AVM系统的效率和安全性。
AVM技术已在宝马德国的Dingolfing和Leipzig工厂中应用于不同车型的生产和物流阶段。
Hesai和Embotech等公司的计划是将这一技术扩展到宝马在欧洲和北美的更多工厂。
Beijing (Gasgoo)-
LiDAR maker Hesai Technology on Feb. 5 announced its recent strategic partnership with Swiss autonomous driving solutions provider Embotech AG and French spatial intelligence software developer Outsight. The collaboration aims to integrate Hesai's high-performance LiDAR with Outsight's advanced perception software to enhance Embotech's Automated Vehicle Management (AVM) system, which is currently deployed in BMW's smart factories in Germany for Automated Driving In-Plant.

BMW initially implemented the AVM tech at its Dingolfing plant for the 5 Series and 7 Series vehicle models, later expanding it to the Leipzig plant for the MINI Countryman and other models. At Dingolfing, vehicles can autonomously navigate over one kilometer from production to post-assembly areas, eliminating the need for manual intervention and reducing logistical inefficiencies.
The new partnership has been built on years of collaboration in autonomous driving innovation. The integrated solution, already operational in three BMW plants in Europe, supports automated vehicle scheduling across production and logistics stages. Plans are underway to expand the technology to BMW factories in Europe and North America.
