Sensing Technology Comparison Rating: H = High, M=Medium, L = Low Camera Radar LiDAR Autonomous Requirement Object Detection M H H H Radar and Lidar are not affected by obscurant conditions as much as camera systems. Cameras also affected by light variation and shadows. Copyright 2017 NXP Semiconductors 3

Sensing Technology Comparison Rating: H = High, M=Medium, L = Low Camera Radar LiDAR Autonomous Requirement Classification H M L H Level of detail available for template matching much higher in camera systems. The range and height of detection area affects performance Copyright 2017 NXP Semiconductors 4

Sensing Technology Comparison Rating: H = High, M=Medium, L = Low Camera Radar LiDAR Autonomous Requirement Speed Detection L H M H Radar and Lidar are active emitters that can make measurements on returning signals Object-level motion detection is difficult due to the dual motion introduced by the camera motion and the object motion Copyright 2017 NXP Semiconductors 5
