Quanergy – M1™ Edge PoE LiDAR Sensor
Solution that combines smart object detection software with Quanergy’s M-Series LiDAR sensors
M1 Edge PoE is a complete, out-of-the-box solution that combines smart object detection software with Quanergy’s M-Series LiDAR sensors to enable smart awareness for applications that require simple object detection and alerting capabilities.
With M1 Edge PoE, customers can quickly and easily set up a LiDAR sensor, collect, and make use of the LiDAR point cloud data without additional development effort required.
QORTEX Aware™, Object Detection Software
QORTEX Aware™ is a core proprietary detection software from Quanergy which enables quick and flexible deployment of LiDAR technology in a wide variety of uses cases and markets. With QORTEX Aware™ integrated on-board, the M1 Edge PoE can monitor user defined detection zones and triggers an alarm through the Ethernet interface if there is any activity within the zones. Users can create up to 8 pre-configured evaluation fields, each with up to 128 detection zones, where the evaluation field is selected via the sensor’s Ethernet API.
- Complete hardware and software integration saves development costs
- Out-of-the-box solution for quick deployments in a wide variety of applications
- Flexible configuration to support a variety of use cases
Key Applications
M1 Edge PoE is ideal for stationary and dynamic applications that require simple alerting when an object enters a
monitored area. Key markets for M1 Edge PoE include:
- Safety/Security: Easily monitor restricted areas with Quanergy’s M1 Edge PoE solution. Intruders entering protected areas are flagged, triggering an alarm alerting security personnel about the breach.
- Warehouse/Logistics: QORTEX Aware™ is perfect for easy setup of bin picking applicaitons. Get confirmation of correct pick and alarm for incorrect pick. Simple to change bin pattern as needed. Or it can be used for Loading Dock monitoring, giving up to date status of open loading docks.
- Industrial: QORTEX Aware™ is an ideal solution for level and height sensing applications, including tank level monitoring, object stacking, fill level detection, and more.
