NAMUGA debuts Stella-2 solid-state lidar powered by Lumotive

Stella-2 offers software-defined control, compact design, and outdoor-ready performance for robotics and automation.

Lumotive announced that NAMUGA Co., Ltd. will introduce its first solid-state 3D lidar sensor, Stella-2, which uses Lumotive’s Light Control Metasurface (LCM) technology, at the upcoming Embedded Vision Summit in California.

Stella-2 offers a compact design, software-configurable features, and outdoor-capable performance for use in commercial robotics and industrial automation. It is suitable for applications such as autonomous vacuum cleaners, lawnmowers, warehouse robots, and industrial equipment.

Stella-2: Designed for robotics and autonomy


  • Software-defined sensing: One sensor, many roles—adaptive scanning customizes field-of-view, range, and frame rates.
  • Compact and power-efficient: Small form factor, MIPI interface, and <15W power consumption for easy integration.
  • All-in-one perception: Replaces multiple sensors with a single hardware unit configurable for cliff detection, obstacle avoidance, SLAM, and more.
  • Indoor and outdoor ready: 30m typical range, 80m max, 120° x 90° field-of-view, and HDR mode for reliable navigation in varied environments.

Available in integratable sensor module and sealed enclosure formats, Stella-2 simplifies 3D perception for a wide range of robotic platforms.

The launch of Stella-2 reflects the deepening collaboration between Lumotive and NAMUGA, driven by a shared mission to democratize high-performance 3D sensing through scalable, software-defined solutions. Embedded Vision Summit marks a major milestone in bringing this vision to market.
