Israeli lidar maker Innoviz Technologies has introduced its latest sensor, the InnovizThree, marking a new step in the company’s effort to make advanced perception systems more affordable and easier to integrate for autonomous vehicle developers.

The new unit is designed to deliver long-range sensing while reducing cost, size and power consumption compared with its predecessor, the InnovizTwo. The company said the latest model is intended to support wider adoption of autonomous and advanced driver-assistance systems across passenger vehicles, commercial fleets and emerging robotics applications.

According to Innoviz, the InnovizThree offers a price reduction of more than 35% compared with earlier generations, while weighing approximately 600 grams. The sensor is designed to operate at just 13 watts, allowing installation behind the windshield or within a vehicle’s body without compromising efficiency or cabin comfort.

The company said the unit provides detection ranges exceeding 250 meters and supports high-resolution perception required for advanced autonomy. Its compact design allows integration in multiple locations, including roofs, grilles and interior mounting points, giving automakers greater flexibility in vehicle design.

“The InnovizThree was developed to meet the industry’s demand for a high-performance LiDAR that is also economically viable at scale,” said Omer Keilaf, chief executive officer of Innoviz Technologies. “It delivers the performance required for autonomous driving while addressing cost, power and packaging constraints that OEMs face.”

Beyond automotive use, Innoviz said the sensor’s lightweight design and low power requirements make it suitable for applications such as robotics, industrial automation and aerial systems.

The company plans to showcase the InnovizThree publicly at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2026, taking place in Las Vegas from Jan. 6 to Jan. 9. The display will include a live demonstration highlighting behind-the-windshield integration and real-time sensing capabilities.

Innoviz said the new product is aimed at accelerating commercial deployment of autonomous systems by making high-performance LiDAR more accessible to manufacturers pursuing large-scale production.
