 nguished Lecture\n\nCampus Lausanne BM 5202 (live)\nCampus Microcity MC B0
  302 (video)\nZoom Live Stream: https://epfl.zoom.us/j/936686006\n\nAbstra
 ct: Autonomous vehicles are a revolution to the traditional vehicle indust
 ry\, where the key component lies in the Lidar for the self-driving cars. 
 In recent years\, quite a lot of Lidar start-up companies emerge in China.
  With the direct help from these Chinese Lidar companies and industry cons
 ulting companies\, I will present the current developments of the mechanic
 al and the solid-state Lidars for autonomous vehicles in China. A bold for
 ecast for the bright future will be also discussed.\n\nBio: Zhengxi Cheng 
 received M.Sc. degree in microelectronics and solid-state electronics from
  Fudan University in 2007 and Ph.D. degree in microelectronics and solid-s
 tate electronics from Shanghai Institute of Technical Physics\, Chinese Ac
 ademy of Sciences in 2012. Since 2007\, he has worked in Shanghai Institut
 e of Technical Physics. He has been promoted to an Associate Professor sin
 ce 2013. From 2015 to 2017\, he was a visiting researcher with the Researc
 h Center for Advanced Science and Technology\, The University of Tokyo\, J
 apan. His research is focused on opto-electronic integrated circuit\, opti
 cal MEMS devices technology.\n\n\nNote: The Seminar Series is eligible for
  ECTS credits in the EDMI doctoral program\n\nNote: After the lecture\, th
 ere will be time for discussion and interaction with the distinguished spe
 aker\, sandwich lunch and refreshments sponsored by the Institute of Micro
 engineering will be provided for attendees in front of the lecture hall (B
