As Part of Hammerhead™ Advanced Stereo Vision Sensor Solution, Any-Object Detection Enables Drivers to See Roadway Hazards Sooner, Allows More Time to React and Brake
SOMERVILLE, Mass., Sept. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — NODAR, the leading provider of next-generation stereo vision technology for autonomous vehicles (AVs), today announced a new capability within their Hammerhead™ product line called GridDetect, which offers long-range object detection and tracking for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and AVs. Combined with Hammerhead’s ultra long-range high-resolution sensing capabilities, the product is now able to detect and track objects as far away as 350 meters and as small as 10 centimeters in height in real time.
Autonomous vehicles must be able to detect potentially dangerous objects early enough to give them time to avoid the object. As the allowable speed of AVs increases, the distance at which a self-driving vehicle must be able to detect an object increases. Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) helps frame this challenging requirement:
In Europe, recent updates to the European Automated Lane Keep Assist (ALKS) regulations have increased the acceptable speed of an automated vehicle from 64 kph (40 mph) to 130 kph (81 mph), with the requirement that vehicles must be able to detect a 10-centimeter object at 150 meters while traveling at this speed. NODAR Hammerhead is able to detect and track a 10-centimeter object at a distance of 150 meters while traveling at 130 kph, becoming the first and only 3D sensor to satisfy this new stringent standard. This unique capability is due to NODAR’s exceptionally long-range and accurate 3D depth sensing.
NODAR’s new object detection capability introduces a component to the company’s Hammerhead software-based solution, which utilizes wide-baseline stereo vision cameras and automatic online calibration to provide highly accurate, ultra-long range, real-time depth sensing. The new solution detects and analyzes the road plane while identifying the position, size, and relative velocity of objects, and also tracking those objects frame by frame.
“Our long-range object detection solution greatly enhances the reliability and safety of self-driving vehicles and ADAS,” says Leaf Jiang, NODAR co-founder and CEO. “The combination of untethered stereo cameras, auto calibration, and object detection enables exceptionally precise and reliable depth sensing and scene analysis—even at night and in low-visibility weather conditions—which is why our 3D vision technology outperforms all other 3D sensors today, including lidar. NODAR offers a viable, high-performance, cost-efficient path to mainstream L3 and above passenger vehicles that is available now.”
NODAR will be showcasing their object detection product at IAA, Sept. 4-8 in Munich, Germany at Hall B2, Booth # C123.

All are welcome to attend the open house, see the new clinic and learn more about medication-assisted treatment for addiction on Wednesday, September 13, between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.
WASILLA, Ala., Sept. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Ideal Option, one of Alaska’s largest providers of outpatient medication-assisted treatment for opioids, methamphetamine, alcohol and polysubstance, will host an open house at their newly relocated clinic in Wasilla. The event will take place on Wednesday, September 13, in the McKinley Building located at 3035 E Palmer-Wasilla Hwy, Ste. 301.
As fentanyl overdoses continue to dominate the headlines in Alaska, Ideal Option aims to educate the community about the effectiveness of evidence-based treatment. The statistics provided by Alaska’s public health department for 2021 show an alarming 74% increase in overdose deaths in a year, with fentanyl-related deaths surging by 150%.
The overdose statistics are rising due to the presence of fentanyl in other illicit drugs, like methamphetamine, often unbeknownst to the users. According to Alaska’s Department of Health and Social Services, among the 140 fentanyl overdose deaths that occurred in 2021, 61% also involved methamphetamine, while 28% also involved heroin.
Polysubstance use disorder is now the most common diagnosis at Ideal Option. Outcomes data from 2022 show 66% of all Alaska patients tested positive for two or more substances at enrollment, and 46% tested positive for three or more substances.
On Wednesday, September 13, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., all members of the community are invited to attend the open house at Ideal Option’s clinic in Wasilla located at 3035 E Palmer-Wasilla Hwy, Ste. 301. This event gives attendees the opportunity to explore the facility, meet addiction medicine experts and gain a comprehensive understanding of the services provided by Ideal Option.
Throughout the open house, guests will have the chance to network, enjoy refreshments, and pick up educational materials.

Getech, a world-leading locator of subsurface resources, has released a new version of its proprietary digital platform, Globe.
HOUSTON, Texas, Sept. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Getech, a world-leading locator of subsurface resources, has released a new version of its proprietary digital platform, Globe.
Globe models the last 400 million years of Earth’s evolution into c. 40,000 layers of geological data that facilitate the exploration of subsurface resources, including critical minerals, natural hydrogen, petroleum, geothermal and carbon storage. Globe combines proprietary computational modelling and AI-led machine learning techniques with Getech’s geoscientific expertise to deliver a unique Earth model that enables its customers to identify new resource exploration opportunities. The new release – Globe 2023 – includes powerful capabilities designed to address the modern challenges of resource discovery.
With Getech’s commitment to continuous innovation and providing unparalleled AI and data-led exploration services and solutions, Globe 2023’s content and functionality deliver even more value to its customers. This latest release introduces numerous features aimed at enhancing mineral location efforts – such as a new dynamic plate model, enhanced paleogeographies and extended palaeosurface geology coverage. These improvements are designed to deepen understanding of the ancient land surface and its composition, a crucial aspect in successful resource exploration.
The enhancements to the plate model in particular shed light on how tectonic movement has influenced the location of resources in the present day. In addition, Globe 2023 contains significant enhancements to its stratigraphic lexicon. This updated data, combined with its paleogeographic and palaeosurface geology reconstructions, offers exhaustive details about the composition of sedimentary basins, which is instrumental in locating resources such as petroleum, evaporative lithium and basin ores such as sedimentary copper.
In response to the increasing interest in naturally occurring hydrogen as an energy transition resource, Globe 2023’s updated 2D gravity and magnetic models assist in identifying the depth and location of ultramafic bodies which can be the source rocks to such ‘white hydrogen’ occurrences. Meanwhile, Globe 2023’s updated palaeosurface geology layers can assist in identifying potential carbon storage sites by better understanding the composition and quality of reservoirs. Chris Jepps, Getech COO commented:
“We continue to see strong demand for Globe from new customers and, through regular client engagement, we know how valuable this unique and detailed digital twin of the Earth is to its long-standing user-base of energy resource and mineral exploration companies.
At Getech, we recognise that the future is wholly dependent on a global transition towards energy from low-carbon sources. In Globe 2023 we are delighted to release a new version that reflects this evolving energy landscape, with new capabilities supportive of exploration across multiple energy sectors – including petroleum, minerals, metals, geothermal and energy storage.”
