Lidar sensors add depth scanning for better photos and AR, but in future we could see mixed-reality headsets and more. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, VR/AR ...
During the 2005 DARPA challenge, engineers from the Stanford University came closest in achieving the decades-old dream of a self-driving car, as envisioned in staples of the sci-fi genre like TimeCop ...
LiDAR, also known as Light Detection and Ranging, uses lasers to measure the distance, shape, and orientation of 3D objects. LiDAR is becoming increasingly common, appearing in devices like the iPhone ...
Alex Davies covers autonomous vehicles and other transportation machines for WIRED. “Anyone relying on lidar is doomed,” Musk said at Tesla’s inaugural “Autonomy Day” in April. “It’s like having a ...
If you are interested in building your very own mini DIY LiDAR sensor for less than $40, capable of detecting objects in a 360° area, you may be interested in a new Arduino Instructables project ...
The University of Dayton Lidar and Optical Communications Institute is a U.S. Air Force Center of Excellence for laser radar (lidar) research and graduate study. It is a collaboration between UD and ...
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said that lidar sensors are a “crutch” for autonomous vehicles. But his company has bought so many from Luminar that Tesla is now the lidar maker’s top customer. Tesla ...
It’s Friday and the world is falling apart, so let’s just take a short mental health break with some interesting news out of the field of archaeology, where tech is enabling some fascinating new ...
