    The Cat® off-highway truck will feature two Iris LiDARs.

    LiDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is critical for navigation and obstacle detection in autonomous machines. LiDAR uses light in the form of a pulsed laser to continuously scan the surrounding environment and provide high-precision measurement of the shape and size of objects nearby.

    The Luminar LiDAR technology will be introduced with Cat® Command for hauling, initially targeted for quarry and aggregate operations. The Cat® off-highway truck will feature two Iris LiDAR with a unique integration system designed exclusively for Caterpillar. Caterpillar has long been recognized as an industry leader in autonomy, with autonomous trucks on three continents having traveled more than 334 million kilometers and autonomously moving more than 9.3 billion tonnes.

    "We are proud to collaborate with Luminar on our next generation autonomous solution. We've invested in autonomy and automation for more than 30 years, and we've seen how it adds value for our customers in terms of safety, productivity and efficiency," said Jaime Mineart, Chief Technology Officer and Senior Vice President of Integrated Components and Solutions for Caterpillar Inc.

    "This new partnership with Caterpillar, the global leader in industrial equipment, has the opportunity to be a spearhead for next industrial revolution of automation," said Austin Russell, Founder and CEO of Luminar. "Now that Luminar has successfully executed for automotive series production, we're able to branch out to adjacent markets with a shared mission. Together, we look forward to saving lives and enhancing profitability for CAT customers around the world with industry-leading capabilities."
