Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is the primary sensor technology used in autonomous vehicles to detect and avoid obstacles. It works by emitting laser pulses and measuring the time it takes for them to bounce back, creating a precise 3D map of the surroundings.
While AI processes this data, LiDAR specifically provides the physical obstacle detection capability needed for safe navigation.
