Startups argue cars need more sensor types
Original: You betcha: Startups believe autos need more sensor modalities
Autonomous vehicle startups are pushing the idea that self-driving cars need more types of sensors, not fewer. The argument, reported by Fierce Sensors, runs against a trend among some automakers and tech companies to cut costs by relying on fewer sensor modalities, such as cameras alone. The startups contend that combining radar, lidar, cameras and other sensing technologies is necessary for safety and reliability.
Why now: The industry is actively debating whether cheaper, camera-only approaches can match multi-sensor systems for safe autonomous driving.
