Which car manufacturer uses LIDAR in production vehicles? What they usually do is use radar. As Tesla did in the past. This is less likely to do phantom braking

Which car manufacturer uses LIDAR in production vehicles? What they usually do is use radar. As Tesla did in the past. This is less likely to do phantom braking, but on the other side is bad at detecting stationary obstacles (remember all the complaints about Autopilot hitting stopped cars?)
- junipertea 5y agoWhile it is true just some chinese EV manufactures use LIDAR right now (Nio, Xpeng), Volvo[1] and Mercedes[2] are on board. I believe once the sensors become cheap enough, people will just use that rather than bet on cameras.

- _ph_ 5y agoThat is true, but currently most manufacturers use a system like the initial Autopilot, the Mobileye solution with radar and some camera information. LIDAR should be quite for collision avoidance in conditions where it can be used. This should improve car safety quite a bit.
