יזם ישראלי הופתע לגלות את הצ'יפ שפיתח במצגת של המתחרה הגדולה | גיקטיים
Israeli startup Lidwaves CEO, Yehuda Videl, was shocked to see his companys chip in a presentation by US competitor Luminar. Lidwave claims to have developed a LiDAR chip that eliminates the need for multiple components and sensors, potentially revolutionising the sensor and vehicle market. Luminar, a major player in the LiDAR market, is significantly larger than Lidwave, with a market value of $3.13 billion and around 400 employees. Videl claims that Luminar used an image of Lidwaves chip in a presentation, causing confusion among customers and investors. Lidwave has sent a cease-and-desist letter to Luminar and a letter to the SEC, alleging that Luminar is misrepresenting its products to investors.
