I am surprised that I didn’t see discussion about Audi’s lidar that’s been in use in production vehicles now. Yes, it’s on a different level, only used for ADAS, but it’s still lidar that’s actively used.




If I remember correctly, the Valeo Scala that's in the Audi cars uses a discrete 16 element 1D array (940 nm diodes + APDs) plus a rotating mirror to scan.

Thanks for that. I went Googling with a name, and it looks like the pods on current-model Audis is a LIDAR in one and radar in another.
