LiDAR is a remote sensing device or a sensor, which uses laser light to detect and measure the distance. The name itself represents that it works on the light detection. LiDAR is used in an Autonomous Vehicles also known as self-driving cars like robot. And that sensor, lidar is installed on the top of the cars.
LiDAR is capable of detecting ultraviolet rays and also infrared rays to measure. Each light rays means to a different distance. LiDAR senses thousands of laser lights per second. So that, the sensor placed on the top of the cars, emits light which is measured with pulses and waits for the return signal also it transmittes rapid update point cloud into animated 3D Representation, where a person can see the map. And that 3D Representation is been created by measuring the speed of light and distance covered by it, which helps to locate the position of vehicles around it. On that basis, sensor commands to put break or to speed down/speed up or to stop the vehicle. The main advantage of this LiDAR sensor in an Autonomous Vehicles is- we need not to confront the issues such as sharp curves, rash driving or traffic jams and some other issues confronted by humans. And it provides a smoother and the safe driving.
