Innoviz Designed a LIDAR to Make Any Car Autonomous

摘要

LIDAR has been and is going to continue to be one of the key technologies behind self-driving cars. A January 2018 report from Research and Markets has predicted the global automotive LIDAR sensors market to grow with a CAGR of 35.2% over the period of 2017-2023. But LIDAR isn't perfect. To take cars from where they are today all the way to level 5 autonomy (no steering wheel and no human driver intervention required) the laser sensors are going to have to get better, cheaper, and easier to integrate into vehicles.
