Frequently Asked Questions

What sensors are used in autonomous vehicles?

Most autonomous vehicles combine 3D LiDAR, radar, cameras and GNSS/INS. This kit includes all four types.

What is sensor fusion in autonomous driving?

Sensor fusion combines data from LiDAR, radar, cameras and GNSS/INS into one consistent view of the vehicle's surroundings and position. The fused view is more reliable than any single sensor in difficult conditions.

Why use radar as well as LiDAR?

Radar measures range and relative speed at long distances and works well in rain, fog and dust. LiDAR provides detailed 3D shape. Using both improves detection reliability on highways.

What is RTK GNSS/INS and why does it matter?

RTK GNSS corrects satellite positioning to a high accuracy, and the INS (IMU) keeps estimating position and heading when the satellite signal drops, for example in tunnels. Autonomous vehicles use this for localisation and for time-aligned sensor data.

How is this kit different from the Highway Autonomy Essential kit?

The Essential kit includes the HyperEdge 900DRV, one LiDAR and one camera. The Advanced kit adds a Continental ARS 408-21 radar, an RTK M20X GNSS/INS receiver and an 8 MP GMSL2 camera option.

Does the kit include autonomous driving software?

No. The kit provides the computing and sensor hardware. Sensor-fusion, perception, planning and control software are developed or provided by the customer.
