The group standard “Reliability Requirements and Test Methods for Typical Optical Components of Vehicle-mounted LiDAR” (T/CAAMTB 358-2026), administered by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), has recently been officially released and implemented.

The standard was led by Ningbo Sunny Automotive Optech Co., Ltd. as the core drafting organization, in collaboration with nearly 20 leading enterprises and research institutes across the industry chain, including the Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, CAS, and BYD Auto Industry.

As the first reliability standard in the industry specifically targeting optical components for automotive LiDAR, the document fills a critical gap in China’s standard system for this field.
