Why is LiDAR such a big deal? Our Honda Odyssey has had LiDAR for Lane Assist, Brake Assist, etc for a while. The sensor costs $125 on eBay.

- lnsru 3y agoWhat does it cost in official dealership? 1250$? Parts from scraped best case or stolen worst case cars are not an indicator.
- shakow 3y agoPrices in official dealership are not really an indicator either.
- timidiceball 3y agoYour odyssey has a radar component not a LiDAR sensor. (Big gap in resolution)
- firesteelrain 3y agoOkay for some reason when I Googled the part is listed as lidar sensor. https://www.ebay.com/itm/175646053526?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=VrepfF55TsO&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=to2lu9aaq5i&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.com/itm/175646053526?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid... Honda says it’s millimeter wave. https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/web/docs/AJA15434.PDF https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/web/docs/AJA15434.P... Our Odyssey uses a combination of multiple radar sensors and a camera to provide excellent sensing. From what I have read, millimeter wave is best of both worlds between LiDAR and Radar. https://www.engineering.com/ElectronicsDesign/ElectronicsDesignArticles/ArticleID/17735/Best-of-Both-Worlds-How-mmWave-Can-Bridge-the-Gap-Between-LiDAR-and-Radar.aspx https://www.engineering.com/ElectronicsDesign/ElectronicsDes... LiDAR doesn’t seem practical.
- TaylorAlexander 3y agoThe last link reads mostly like a press release from the manufacturer. I suspect there are reasons why it is inferior to LiDAR not listed on that page. LiDAR traditionally can be kind of impractical but solid state LiDAR will help a lot with that.
