To paraphrase Author C. Clarke, when the smart sensors that will make autonomous driving possible slip into the background, mobility will become magic. The concepts that North American Lighting (NAL), a Koito Group Company, displayed at CES2018, suggest that by the early to mid-2020s, driving will be magic.
In the above interview, Kishore Ahuja, Vice President Technology of NAL, discusses how this large OEM is integrating various sensor technologies, from Radar to Lidar, into form factors that are familiar to existing cars. Besides providing a 360-degree view beyond the range of human vision, NAL will be integrating features, such as windshield wipers, to ensure operation in all conditions.
