Radar systems for autonomous driving—at L2/L2+ and beyond
It’s a technology that feels like it’s been nearly there for years, but we’re still waiting for full autonomy in cars, and it’s much further out than we originally thought.
Industry body SAE defines six levels of driving automation (see table), from no automation up to full self-driving at level 5. As vehicles become more automated and reach higher levels, they’re more tightly regulated and require more sophisticated systems to provide a safe, reliable solution.
