PALO
ALTO, Calif., Nov. 6, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Hesai Technology (Nasdaq: HSAI), the global leader
in automotive lidar solutions, announced today that its two
flagship products -- Pandar128 robotaxi lidar and AT128 ADAS lidar
for passenger cars – which are sold globally, including in the
U.S., have been certified by independent, industry-leading,
third-party technical testing bodies as data secure and incapable
of being used for cyber attacks.
Hesai lidars cannot store or wirelessly transmit point cloud
images, the 3D pictures that lidars generate of the environment
around a vehicle. Hesai lidars transmit the point cloud images to a
vehicle's onboard computer via one-way secure cable transmission,
ensuring data cannot be accessed outside of the vehicles in which
they operate, which the two assessment reports confirmed. The point
clouds generated by Hesai lidars are processed by a vehicle's
onboard computer in order to make intelligent driving decisions and
avoid collisions. The data is owned, stored and controlled by a
vehicle's manufacturer and owner, not by the lidar maker.
TÜV Rheinland, the leading independent German technical testing
organization with expertise in safety, efficiency and quality,
assessed Hesai's Pandar128 based on the cybersecurity certification
standard and concluded: "Lidar Pandar128 does not have the
capability to store point cloud data or send any point cloud data
out of the vehicle."
Recently, the Hesai Pandar128 became the world's first lidar
product to obtain ISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity certification. This
standard covers the entire lifecycle of a lidar, from
conceptualization through development, production, and operation,
to disposal.
Dekra, the world's largest independent expert organization in
the testing, inspection and certification sector, randomly selected
Pandar128 and AT128 lidars from Hesai's manufacturing facility and
conducted a tear-down examination. Both units were taken apart and
examined by Dekra. Dekra concluded: "1. The lidar has no wireless
point cloud data transmission capabilities. 2. The lidar is not
capable of storing point cloud images. 3. The lidar's key
components are supplied by US/EU manufacturers."
"These separate reports from the world's two leading independent
testing bodies affirms what Hesai has consistently said – our
lidars are no threat to the security of any nation," said Hesai CEO
and co-founder David Li. "We founded
Hesai with the mission of making roads safer and saving lives by
bringing affordable, high-performance lidars to everyone around the
world."
