Connected Vehicle Insights: Trends in Roadway Domain Active Sensing: Developments in Radar, LIDAR, and other Sensing Technologies, and Impact on Vehicle Crash Avoidance/Automation and Active Traffic Management

The objective of advanced automotive research has been to develop new technologies that can prevent an ever wider variety of crash types. The end goal for such research, however, has been to mass produce affordable “smart” cars designed never to crash. The first challenge in developing vehicles that “refuse to crash” is to improve and integrate a growing variety of roadway domain sensing technologies. This paper covers developments in this area, focusing on “active” sensing systems.
