Seyond has introduced a new solid-state LiDAR product line aimed at large-scale automotive deployment, unveiling its Hummingbird series as part of a broader end-to-end sensor portfolio, the company said this week.
The Hummingbird series marks Seyond’s first fully solid-state LiDAR offering designed for mass production. The company said the platform has already secured a confirmed original equipment manufacturer (OEM) design win, positioning the sensor for integration into future passenger vehicle programs and signaling a shift from pilot projects toward higher-volume adoption.

The Hummingbird D1, developed for automotive use, and the D1-R variant for robotics rely on a fully electronic scanning architecture, removing mechanical components to improve durability and consistency. The system offers a wide field of view of up to 140 degrees horizontally and 100 degrees vertically, which Seyond said is intended to reduce blind spots and support short-range, high-resolution perception.
Seyond said the new sensor is optimized for centralized vehicle architectures, supporting raw data output that can be processed by a central computing unit. This approach is designed to simplify integration for automakers and allow perception systems to scale as software-defined vehicle platforms evolve.

Alongside the Hummingbird launch, Seyond showcased a consolidated LiDAR lineup covering multiple sensing ranges. This includes the Falcon K for ultra-long-range detection, the Robin E1X for long-range applications, and the Robin W for mid-range coverage. The company said the unified portfolio allows customers to source multiple perception needs from a single supplier while maintaining consistent validation and supply processes.
Seyond also highlighted manufacturing flexibility as part of its strategy, noting that selected configurations of its sensors can be produced in the United States. These options are intended to meet regulatory and security requirements for customers operating in sensitive or government-linked environments.
