I have lidar jammers on my car, but Arizona doesn't use a lot of lidar. (Motors and sometimes bored DPS will, but typically it's Ka band radar via Stalker Duals.) Not really knowing how lidar worked, except that a "laser" pulse hits the car and reads back a speed, this article was great because it explains that the measurement process is far slower than you'd think (0.3 seconds!) which is easily enough time for my jammer to detect the inbound infrared and start spamming light on that frequency, which is what they do. I don't think I've ever successfully jammed one, since again, AZ is mostly Ka, but it's pretty neat to know that they can work as advertised (since they're built in to the front of the car most likely to be targeted by lidar).
