Ouster Lidar Webinars
Webinar: All-weather Reliability
Sensor failures increase costs from downtime, repairs, and more critically, safety risk. Operating in adverse conditions requires 3D perception that is as robust as the sensor itself. Join us to learn more about what makes Ouster the best pick for outdoor, all-weather operation.
Watch nowWebinar: Deep Dive into Lidar Slam With Kudan
SLAM is one of many methods that provide autonomy to robots. As with many technologies like Artificial Intelligence, SLAM benefits from new advancements, such as lidar and edge computing, to continuously improve and push the boundaries of what autonomous robots can do. In this webinar, we’ll show you how to use Ouster’s integrated IMU to reduce motion artifacts and noise to create a highly accurate map with Kudan Lidar SLAM. Join us on Wednesday, September 14th at 10 am PT to learn more!

Digital vs Analog Lidar
Digital lidar sensors and analog lidar sensors may look similar on the exterior, but inside the two technologies are fundamentally different approaches, with big implications for cost, reliability, resolution, and headroom for future performance improvement. Join us to learn about these differences, and why digital technology is the future of lidar.
Watch nowWebinar series: How to understand lidar performance
Digging into the datasheets to compare different lidar sensors can be frustrating and confusing. How do you get an apples-to-apples comparison? What tradeoffs exist between specs? Is everything being measured the same way?
Resolution and Frame Rate
Explore a lidar sensor datasheet and explain what the different specs mean—highlighting frame rate and resolution. We'll explain how we measure these specs and what tradeoffs you may see between the specs, and why they matter for different lidar applications. Then we break down a point cloud and show how you can observe the specs in the data itself.
Watch nowRange, Precision, and Accuracy
Join us as we walk through how range and precision are measured for our lidar sensors and explain how they are affected by different architecture choices, lighting conditions, and target types. We'll dig into the physics of what causes these impacts and how you can understand range and precision for all lidar sensors.
Watch nowReliability and Ruggedness
Reliability matters. Sensors failing on the job are both costly and a potential safety risk. Join us to take a look at how to better understand reliability metrics, get an overview of key standards, and learn how to think about the hidden costs of sensor replacements.
Watch nowLidar Emitters and Detectors
Laser and detector choices determine the performance capabilities, reliability, and cost profile of a lidar sensor. Learn about the different choices in this webinar.
