ELI5 LiDAR - how it sees the world?
ELI5 Explain Like I'm 5: Bite sized answers to stuff you should know about - in a mini podcast
What is LiDAR? Why is it helpful in addition to seeing things through cameras? How does LiDAR time-of-flight measure distance when light travels so fast—what tricks give picosecond precision? Why can LiDAR detect single-photon returns from angled surfaces, yet mirrors and shiny objects cause false readings? What are some surprising places LIDAR is used that most people wouldn’t expect?
... we explain like I'm five
