Abstract
Self driving cars offer the potential to be a safer, more economical and more environmentally friendly transport option. High performance LiDARs are one of the primary enabling sensing technologies vital to autonomous vehicles to meet the demanding requirements for full autonomy. We discuss the role of automotive LiDAR in autonomous vehicles, and the performance requirements and optical technologies that high performing LiDARs need to achieve to fulfill that role.
