Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Ouster's new Rev8 sensor family fuses color directly into every point of data, making it the first LIDAR with native color. The flagship model of the Rev8 family, the OS1 Max, has a detection range of up to 200 meters at 10% reflectivity, and up to 500 meters under optimal conditions. The sensor can handle lighting conditions from near-total darkness to intense direct sunlight. Early adopters of Ouster's technology include Google, Volvo, Skydio, PlusAI, and Seegrid.
