TOKYO, Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — [TIER IV](https://tier4.co.jp/en/), the pioneering
force behind open-source software for autonomous driving, has added two new models
to its [MP camera series](https://edge.auto/automotive-camera) optimized for commercial-
scale Level 4 autonomy. The C1-120MP and C2-120MP feature a 120-degree wide-angle
lens designed specifically for peripheral sensing. Sales commence on September 30,
2026.

[First launched in May 2026](https://tier4.co.jp/en/updates/press-release/20260513),
the MP camera series is an automotive-grade lineup engineered for advanced autonomous
driving systems. The range combines proprietary image optimization with flexible
camera control, supporting scalable autonomous deployment across public transit,
logistics, construction, and agricultural sectors.

The new 120-degree field-of-view models reduce perimeter blind spots and provide
broad situational awareness. Pairing these wide-angle cameras for close-range coverage
with narrow-angle cameras for long-range detection offers greater flexibility in
system design, minimizing the total camera count without compromising the comprehensive
coverage essential for safe autonomous driving. This approach allows for leaner 
sensor configurations that improve overall system performance by optimizing data
processing and reducing power consumption.

Designed for compatibility with Autoware, open-source autonomous driving software,
TIER IV’s automotive-grade cameras help reduce autonomous driving system development
time and costs. TIER IV will continue expanding the MP camera series to accommodate
diverse configurations and operational environments, accelerating the deployment
and enhancing the safety of Level 4 autonomous driving.
