LiDAR, Radar, and Cameras: Measuring distance with light in the automotive industry

This webinar discusses methods of measuring distance with light (emphasizing Time of Flight LiDAR) that either are or have the potential to be employed by the industry. We focus on technical aspects of:

• Time of flight (ToF) light detection and ranging (LiDAR) and radar
• Frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar
• FMCW LiDAR
• Stereovision: Active and passive triangulation

Slawomir S. Piatek, Ph.D., is a senior university lecturer of physics at New Jersey Institute of Technology. In his role as science consultant at Hamamatsu Corporation, he has developed a photonics training program for engineers and is involved in popularizing SiPM as a novel photodetector by writing and lecturing about the device.
