Sensor | Future trend |
---|---|
HD map | Reduced maintenance cost (e.g., through crowdsourcing) Improved update frequency |
LiDAR | Lower cost and smaller size Longer range |
Camera | Improved physical performance (e.g., self-cleaning, improved dynamic range, stronger low-light sensitivity, and stronger near-infrared sensitivity) |
RADAR | Reduced cost Improved measurement density |
WiFi/BLE | Longer range, lower power consumption New range and direction measurements |
5G | Denser and more miniaturized base station Multipath-assisted localization; cooperative localization New range and direction measurements |
LPWAN | Higher base station density New range and direction measurements |
INS | Lower sensor errors |
GNSS | Multi-frequency and multi-system Smaller size and power consumption |
UWB/Ultrasonic | Reduced cost Longer range of low-cost systems |
