Conversations in motion: Safe, autonomous driving for everyone
In the popular imagination, a common vision is self-driving cars,1 which would enable passengers to watch movies or simply admire the scenery as their robotic vehicles whisk them to their destinations. However, according to Hull Xu, CFO of Cepton, a provider of light detection and ranging solutions (lidar), that is still a long way in the future. “Full autonomous driving may be a couple of decades away,” he says. “In the meantime, technologies supporting advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) will improve people’s lives for the better.”
