4D Imaging Radar: Sensor Supremacy for Sustained L2+ Vehicle Enablement
Read how super-fine resolution radar mapping proves a compelling, cost-effective alternative to Lidar
White Paper Overview
The advent of 4D imaging radar technology for automotive sensing and autonomous driving applications has reshaped the timetables and economics of our evolution from L0 to fully autonomous L5 vehicles. Radar’s newly tapped ability to enable precise environmental mapping dramatically enhances vehicles’ overall sensing and awareness capabilities, and in so doing, redefines industry expectations for radar’s role going forward relative to camera sensors and particularly lidar sensors.
The recent introduction of NXP’s high-performance S32R45 radar processor provides a clear, cost-effective pathway for OEMs to enable advanced 4D imaging radar capabilities for L2+ and higher at commercial volumes and cost structures, thanks to its smart approach combining NXP’s sophisticated radar signal processing IPs with highly advanced 16nm FinFET CMOS technology.
