![]() ![]() They said their technology can reproduce the forms and positions of obstacles with the precision seen in data prepared for 3-D printers. ![]() startup, to develop a highly accurate LiDAR that can detect things 300 meters or more ahead. Nissan is working with Luminar Technologies Inc., a U.S. announced it will start equipping its vehicles with LiDAR in 2025 and plans to have the new sensors in almost all new models by 2030. One LiDAR device can cost more than 1 million yen ($7,700) to produce. “One hurdle to widespread use will be how to cut production costs while ensuring the system’s safety.” “All automakers will want to use it (LiDAR) because it can prevent accidents that may still occur with existing technologies,” said Kazuo Shimizu, a journalist knowledgeable about automatically operated automobiles. LiDAR has been called the “eye” for automatically operated cars because the technology’s cognitive capability is higher than those of cameras and conventional radar sensors, which are based on radio waves. The new technology, called a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) system, uses laser light to precisely scan the shapes and locations of objects surrounding the vehicle. Automakers are competing to lower costs for next-generation, high-performance sensors that are expected to make self-driving vehicles much safer on the streets. ![]()
