First model to contain lidar will be electric SUV

Rivals including Mercedes-Benz and BMW have announced plans to use lidar sensors in some models, as the industry’s upmarket players try to build additional features into their cars that they believe will help set them apart in the fiercely competitive premium segment.

Its new safety set-up will also monitor drivers inside the vehicle, sensing if they are about to fall asleep, or detecting changes in breathing patterns that might mean the car needs to stop, an advance on a previous eye-tracking system the company demonstrated in 2019. Tesla boss Elon Musk has been a longstanding advocate of camera-only technology, pointing out that humans drive using their eyes.
