Abstract :
Laser scanners find potential application in the automotive field for driver assistance and autonomous operation. Laser scanners that are commercially available are expensive compared to the cost of other commercial automotive sensors, limiting their implementation in cars at this time. The development in laser scanner technology and the anticipated reduced prices that will be available after mass production are expected to result in a growing market share in the near future.
