Autonomous vehicles (AVs), more commonly known as driverless vehicles, are arguably the next big revolution in automotive technology. But with this revolution comes a challenge: how do you ensure onboard artificial intelligence (AI) can respond in real-world traffic conditions? One solution is to capture real-world data using light detection and ranging (LiDAR).
The Challenge of AVs and Real-World Driving Conditions
It is predicted that self-driving cars will become as commonplace as cruise control over the next decade. The driverless vehicle sector industry could become worth as much as $7 trillion by 2050, representing a significant change in transportation worldwide.
