Our vision is to enhance human perception by the most integrated LiDAR systems to make mobility safe

Best in class

Scantinel Photonics GmbH was founded to make mobility safe by offering outstanding FMCW LiDAR technologies. We are striving to deliver the most integrated, flexible and modular LiDAR systems for next generation mobility.

Our mission is to create optimum value for our customers and partners by providing outstanding LiDAR solutions

Scantinel's approach of using frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) LiDAR sensors for obstacle detection and avoidance, object detection and tracking, and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is considered a game changer and a key component for autonomous driving. FMCW LiDAR will undoubtedly propel the breakthrough in autonomous driving.
