A Look At The Future Of 4D Imaging Radar In Autonomous Driving
6/13/2023
4D imaging radar, used in vehicles to detect, track, and analyze the surrounding environment in real time, provides accurate and detailed information about objects in 3D space including their positions, velocities, trajectories, and time dimensions. Its primary function is to detect and track objects around the vehicle, such as vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, and obstacles. By continuously updating the position, velocity, and trajectory of these objects, the radar system helps drivers avoid collisions and enables advanced driver assistance features (ADAS) like adaptive cruise control.
