MVIS LIDAR Comparision
DISCLAIMER: As discussed here and here the table uses the best stats in their respective category. That means a product could have a max. vertical FOV of 120° and a max. Frame Rate of 120 FPS but could not archieve 120°@120 FPS but only 120°@10 FPS. This was made intentionally because not every company is clear with their stats. Also it makes the comparison easier. Sources are stated below for your own interest.

*While they claim they can see up to 500m, their software only allows detection of objects at a max range of 250m. However, i will leave this point to LUMINAR.
** They are listing two sizes for two sensors on their fact sheet. I've chosen the dimensions of the "main" sensor.
*** Some use the refresh rate (Hz), others state the frame rate (FPS). To make the comparision easier, I've stated FPS = Hz

Innoviz PR // Innoviz Presentation // Innoviz website - they contradict each other somehow. I've chosen the website over the presentation for the number if they did state different numbers
AEye Website // AEye Presentation - again, their presentation is wildly different from their website
