Case Study: Outrider reduces supply chain friction and emissions with Ouster digital lidar

Outrider reduces operating costs by 40% with Ouster

Outrider, a company focused on automating distribution yards, faced the challenge of ensuring reliable and precise perception for its autonomous yard trucks operating in harsh, 24/7 environments. To achieve the centimeter-level accuracy needed for tasks like hitching trailers and to detect both anticipated and unanticipated objects, Outrider implemented Ouster's OS0 digital lidar sensors.

The Ouster OS0 sensor was selected for its ultra-wide field of view, ruggedness in extreme weather, and its ability to provide both close and medium-range sensing. This solution from Ouster enabled Outrider's next-generation autonomy kit to operate effectively. The results included a 40% reduction in traditional operating costs, a 50x improvement in cost efficiency compared to remote operations, and a 40% reduction in emissions.
