It may seem trivial, but LiDAR has numerous applications beyond simply scanning your cat. For example, you can mount it on an RC car and have it scan its surroundings to create a 3D map of its ...

What is LiDAR? The concept behind LiDAR has been around since the 1960s. In short, the tech lets you scan and map your environment by firing out laser beams, then timing how quickly they return.

In this case, the team was able to make that self-rotation work so that they could achieve 360° scanning with a single fixed LIDAR sensor. Self-rotation still needs to be slowed, so this was done ...

LiDAR is also very useful for self-driving cars, as we’ve mentioned (though Elon Musk isn’t a fan).LiDAR scanners atop vehicles can ‘see’ objects in real time, even those that you can’t ...

The LiDAR scanner then uses all of that information to create a really detailed 3D picture of everything it can "see" with its laser beams. It's kind of like taking a really fancy picture, ...

Well, as Jalopnik points out while referring its readers to the below video of a Volvo EX90’s Lidar scanner wrecking a camera sensor on the iPhone 16 Pro Max filming it, doing so can be “the ...

Nestled in the report, however, is a tidbit that the LiDAR scanner currently exclusive to the iPhone 12 Pro will come to “all 2021 iPhone models” this year with the iPhone 13.

Introduced a few years ago, the LiDAR scanner is available on the Pro and Pro Max models of the iPhone 12, 13, 14, and 15, as well as the 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro models from 2020 and later.

A lidar scanner has a resolution so high it can image ridges and indentations of only 1 millimetre on objects hundreds of metres away – and capture objects as distant as 1 kilometre ...

Lidar comes to iPhone 12 Pro. Developers can now build AR experiences that interact with real-world objects, and AR apps can now instantly place AR objects in the real world without scanning the room.

The iPhone 12's camera specs have finally been unveiled - and we now know that the iPhone 12 Pro range is going to be using the new LiDAR scanner on the back. That's right, the same mysterious dot ...
