Hertzwell

In the last 10 years, autonomous vehicle companies have been using laser spinning systems called LiDARs for navigation. Although LiDARs have improved in resolution, they can’t penetrate rain, dust, or fog due to physical limitations of lasers. Hertzwell is developing high resolution 3D imaging radars to help driverless vehicles navigate in all weather conditions.This approach uses all weather radar technology from the aerospace industry and miniaturises it for autonomous vehicles. Bhaskar Jyoti Dutta has over 6 years of experience in developing autonomous driving platforms. During his time in TATA, he was involved in research and development projects related to autonomous systems. He has also developed several automotive products for Fiat Chrysler and Delphi. He has a masters degree in Mechatronics from the National University of Singapore. Ram Vignesh Palaniswamy is an aerospace engineer with deep knowledge in radar systems that are predominantly used in the aerospace industry. He recently won an award for his work on radars from Technical University of Munich and Nanyang Technological University.
