performance under adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow, and fog, long-range detection, uniform angular resolution, and point cloud density, modular design for various field of view coverage needs, high cost, automotive grade reliability, manufacturability...
Despite LiDAR’s outstanding capabilities, a number of problems could prevent it from being widely used in the autonomous car sector. The cost of LiDAR technology is one of the biggest obstacles it faces. LiDAR sensors are still excessively expensive for many automakers, despite prices gradually f...
Improving low-cost GPS/MEMS-based INS Integration for Autonomous MAV Navigation by Visual Aiding Today, Micro Air Vehicles are primarily planned to be used in order to provide real-time images from the surrounding area. But to carry out more sophisticated missions, like wind measuring or cartograp...
The eccentric billionaire has been outspoken in his disdain for lidar in autonomous vehicles for many years. In 2020 he claimed it was “freaking stupid” in cars, calling it “expensive and unnecessary.” In 2019, he said, “anyone relying on lidar [for autonomous cars] is doomed....
“We want the cost to be low enough to be used for all cars. We envision a safer world for the millions of automotive drivers across the globe,”said Marta Hall, Velodyne President of Business Development. “From the very beginning of our autonomous vehicle program, we saw LiDAR as key ...

As several research vehicles for autonomous driving vehicles, e.g., Google car, use LIDAR as basic sensor technology for scanning the environment, there is an increase in development activities for LIDAR sensors meeting automotive requirements (cost, performance, reliability). Parking assistance systems...
Neuvition -Solid-State Lidar Industry Pioneer and MEMS solid-state lidar manufacturer,provides 480-700 line highresolution lidar sensors and complete solutions for autonomous vehicles, automation, smart city, robotics, security worldwide.
Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) is playing an increasingly important role in autonomous systems, including autonomous vehicles. However, the cost of LIDAR systems and low output quality (e.g., resolution, accuracy and/or smoothness) are factors limiting the adoption and utility of LIDAR ...
When Musk and his team were trying to estimate how much the first SpaceX rockets would cost, they could have just looked at the products on the market. But as the blog 99u points out, his team didn't settle for that analogy-based argument. Instead, they figured out what the necessary...
