Title
Integrated Solid State LIDAR and Camera Sensor for Autonomous Vehicles
Description
The focus of this study was to address the problem of prohibitively expensive LiDARs currently being used in autonomous vehicles by analyzing the capabilities and shortcomings of affordable LiDARs as replacements. This involved the characterization of affordable LiDARs that are currently available on the market. The characterization of the LiDARs involved testing refresh rates, field of view, distance the sensors could detect, reflectivity, and power of the emitters. The four LiDARs examined in this study were the Scanse, RPLIDAR A2, LeddarTech Vu8, and LeddarTech M16. Of these low cost LiDAR options we find the two best options for use in affordable autonomous vehicle sensors to be the RPLIDAR A2 and the LeddarTech M16.
