Toyota Research Institute (TRI) introduces the TRI-P4 automated driving test vehicle. The P4 benefits from Lexus’ new generation of chassis and steering control technology, which provides greater agility and allows for more responsive and smoother maneuvers during automated driving. The P4 adds two additional cameras to improve situational awareness on the sides and two new imaging sensors – one facing forward, and one pointed to the rear – specifically designed for autonomous vehicles.

The imaging sensors feature new chip technology with high dynamic range. The radar system has been optimized to improve the field of view, especially for close range detection around the vehicle perimeter. The LIDAR sensing system with eight scanning heads carries over from the previous test model, Platform 3.0, and morphs into the new vehicle design.
