LIDAR put into a Tesla–and the world doesn’t come to an end
There is a LIDAR sensor in a Tesla. There is a LIDAR sensor in a Tesla? There is a LIDAR sensor in a Tesla!
Those were the range of reactions by attendees at last week’s World Safety Summit On Autonomous Technology at Levi Stadium in Santa Clara. This marquee annual event about self-driving cars is put together by Velodyne, a top maker of LIDAR sensors, and includes as participants anyone with keen interest in the future of autonomous car safety. Speakers included luminaries from major automakers, notable driverless car tech firms, representatives of automotive standards groups and professors and researchers, including from Princeton University.
