The radar supplies information about objects, their distances and relative speed ahead of the host vehicle. When LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) becomes feasible for automotive usage, it may also offer an alternative digital vision of the objects in front of the host vehicle. ...Radar, LIDAR, and camera have advantages and limitations in terms of range and directionality. OEMs are investigating DSRC as a means to enhance visibility of the oncoming and surrounding traffic, particularly in places where line-of-sight is obstructed by other vehicles, buildings, corners, etc.
