Tesla Autopilot drove into Wile E. Coyote-style fake road wall in the middle of the road in a camera versus lidar test.

The problem is that at scale you can’t have every car on the road using lidar at the same time.

They’ll mess with each other’s systems.

Same with radar.

So while this seems like a solved answer, it’s not necessarily as simple as it sounds

IMO what is required is stereoscopic image capture and processing - This allows instant distance measurement to every pixel of the image
