The data sent back to Aeva, from sensors at a local airport at a distance of about 10 to 12 miles along the surface of any given object, is then sent back to Aeva's laser. So far, the company has tested the idea of measuring a person's distance with this sensor, but there are a few caveats.

In one embodiment, the laser sensor will take a measurement of the wearer's height. By measuring the wearer's height, the data would be collected for a second time. This time, the wearer might be able to determine the distance that he or she is in, but by using the data to measure this, the company is able to determine the distance that he or she is traveling.

Aeva's prototype uses a small lens that makes a shallow depth of field (DFO) measurement. The company also claims that the laser sensor's sensors are able to measure distance with such accuracy that the device can accurately detect the height of a person with a distance greater than the DFO measurement.

Aeva also says that their sensors are able to measure the distance to a person's left hand, and that it takes about 10 milliseconds to get this information. In one embodiment, Aeva's data stream is transmitted back to the phone's battery, where it's sent to a laser sensor that does the same thing.

The first demo of the device's capabilities is here at TechCrunch, and it's certainly promising. The company hopes to make the device more and better as its goal advances.

The next version of the company's lidar sensor is expected to hit shelves in the next few years. Aeva says that its first prototype will be released in 2017, and that its first version will feature an accelerometer and a low-power laser sensor.
