The sensors used in this study were one camera and one LiDAR. These sensors were connected to an NVIDIA Drive Px2 which operated in a 2019 Kia Niro. Two custom scenarios (static and dynamic objects) were chosen to collect sensor data operating in four real-world weather conditions: fair, cloudy, rainy, and light snow.

The long-term goal of this research was to develop surrogate roadside grass samples that have representative spectral characteristics of the real roadside grass as measured by automotive LIDAR. The results from this study indicate that LiDAR operation conditions can be mimicked in a lab setup with an ASD spectrometer. ...This paper studied the spectral features of various kinds of grasses as well as determined the reflectance range of these grass types in different measurement conditions with LiDAR. The long-term goal of this research was to develop surrogate roadside grass samples that have representative spectral characteristics of the real roadside grass as measured by automotive LIDAR.

These sensing technologies include radar, lidar, infrared, and ultrasonic sensing as well as CCD and CMOS imaging and, in most cases, require intensive and sophisticated computing capability to implement.

The solutions show how the redundant system architecture and safety architecture can be created efficiently and diverse redundancy for ADAS systems considering the processing chain from sensors such as camera, radar, lidar, etc. to perception and decision algorithms in order to fulfill the ASIL D safety requirements and to increase the system availability with fail-operational for self-driving vehicles with SAE Level 3 and fully self-driving vehicles with SAE level 4 and level 5.

Flash! Lidar's Next Generation Arrives Technology solutions from new players and alliances are poised to drive down cost.

Hardware mounted on the roof that are used to support cameras and LIDAR sensors, and mechanisms meant to keep that hardware clean and functioning, add even further noise contamination that can pollute the voice interaction.

In the world of ADAS/Autonomous vehicles there are multiple intelligent solutions to assist the driving under various conditions such as night driving, raining, bad weather etc. to assist the driver in multiple ways using advanced sensors such as camera, radar, LIDAR etc. However, the distinct scenarios involve the launch of high intensity lights using the Laser/LED by the attackers into the vehicle cameras/driver, which results into driving disaster.

Besides, this work also places emphasis on using minimal and cheaper sensors such as camera and basic map for autonomous driving rather than expensive sensors such Lidar or HD Maps as we humans do not use such sophisticated sensors for driving. Also, even after decades of research, the reasonable place for ‘mid’ in the End-to-End approach, as well as, the trade-off between data-driven and math-based approach is not fully understood.

Past systems considered for obstacle warning have included microwave (radar), acoustical, and active (lidar) visible/infrared methods. However passive stereo machine vision has distinct advantages over all of these, primarily because it provides more information for scene understanding algorithms than other types of systems.

Lidar vs. Everybody in the Onboard Sensor Race Future vehicle systems will feature a reduced sensor array, but still will need a technology combination for safe performance.

In this article, the RSS model that ensures safety and reliability was derived to be suitable for variable focus function cameras that can cover the cognitive regions of radar and lidar with a single camera. It is thought that by calculating the safety distance under various acceleration and speed conditions, it could contribute to considering the safety distance depending on the performance of an autonomous vehicle in the future.

After a careful analysis of different LIDAR and non-vision passive infrared sensors are implemented and explored. This paper proposes a decision model using the combinations of some simple models of the driver, the vehicle, the control unit, and obstacle detection.

Additionally, interactions with the surrounding traffic were recorded using a perception kit developed in-house equipped with LIDAR and a 360-degree camera system. We collected the data as part of a larger program to assess energy-efficient driving behavior of production connected and automated vehicles.
