Summary
According to a post on X by @edgeaivision, NAMUGA has unveiled a hybrid module that combines a camera and a solid-state LiDAR sensor in one unit. The module is aimed at richer 3D perception for robotics, security and other physical AI systems. The post links to a longer Edge AI and Vision Alliance article, but the snippet does not include product specifications, pricing or availability. The main new element described is that both sensors are packaged together in a single module.

Why it matters
The post says that putting both sensors in one module could make 3D perception cheaper and simpler to build into robots. Robot builders and developers of physical AI systems would be the most directly affected if that holds. Teams evaluating sensor options may want to check the full article for specifications and availability before drawing conclusions.
