Usage scenarios of sensors

Different types of sensing technologies are used in a complementary manner to implement complex use cases. As an example, autonomous vehicles leverage different technologies to accurately determine the environment (current location and approaching obstacles) and make sense of the available information. An autonomous vehicle best illustrates this as it uses diverse technologies to understand its environment in real time, as is illustrated in the following figure:

Figure 9.5 – Autonomous vehicle leveraging multiple technologies for understanding the environment

The following table compares the different sensing technologies used in autonomous vehicles and provides an example of how diverse sensing technologies can be used in a complementary way:
