I've seen less technical friends on social media responding to the dashcam video saying "of course it hit her; it's way too dark to see!" without understanding that LIDAR doesn't use available light. People may not understand exactly what Velodyne does, but so long as the company supplies "the eyes for self-driving cars" they have a clear risk of the public thinking this was a sensor failure.
- chrismcb 9y agoThey should also understand that they video is not an accurate representation of what a human eye can see... Let alone some high tech sensors.
