Cyngn’s latest Patent puts Autonomous Vehicle Tech in the Fast Lane
Cyngn Inc. continues to solidify its position at the forefront of autonomous vehicle (AV) technology with the recent granting of its 20th U.S. patent, U.S. Patent No. 12,032,099. This new patent, titled “Adaptive Motion Compensation of Perception Channels,” enhances the precision and reliability of sensor data in AVs, making significant strides toward safer and more efficient autonomous systems.
Since August 2023, Cyngn has secured ten additional patents, further expanding its robust intellectual property portfolio to a total of 20 U.S. patents. This relentless drive to innovate is not just a testament to Cyngn’s commitment to advancing AV technologies but also a strategic move to cement its leadership in an increasingly competitive market.
Unlocking the Power of Adaptive Motion Compensation
The core of Cyngn’s latest patent lies in its advanced approach to maintaining the accuracy of data collected by an AV’s sensors as it navigates dynamic environments. Integrating sophisticated LiDAR and image technologies, the patented system captures detailed environmental data and dynamically adjusts for any discrepancies caused by the vehicle’s movements.
Here’s how it works: the system captures environmental data, then calculates and corrects for any time lag between data acquisition and processing. This adjustment is crucial as it compensates for sensor motion across multiple axes, enabling the AV to make precise predictions about future positions. Such accuracy is vital for AVs operating in complex environments where real-time data integrity can make the difference between seamless navigation and costly errors.
“The granting of our 20th U.S. patent underscores Cyngn’s ongoing commitment to advancing autonomous vehicle technologies,” said Lior Tal, Chairman and CEO of Cyngn. “Following the 16 U.S. patents granted in 2023, this achievement reflects our team’s dedication to building out a robust patent portfolio to protect our intellectual property.”
