that looks like a scanse.io lidar on the racecar. I've have a preorder on one of those for almost a year now, wonder how they got it so early.

Scanse.io lidar units are out now. I got my Kickstarter unit a few weeks ago, anyway.

For those interested, either wait for Quanergy S3-qi if you can, or opt for the better RP Lidar A2.

I'm surprised the scanse lidar performs so poorly. Its advantage is supposed to be that it's a "real" ToF lidar vs the triangulation thing that RPlidar does.

Has there been recent news on Quanergy? The latest I could find was from last year saying they'll be out early this year. The price point and specs all seem too good to be true, leaving me a bit skeptical, but I would be very happy to be proven wrong.

Can you use it at outside at 11am, when the sun is out?

These robots aren't available yet either.

are they? I thought these are just other companies which happen to use NVIDIA hardware.

I'm more interested in the simulator at the moment. Any news about that?
