Lidar (also LIDAR, LiDAR or LADAR, an acronym of "light detection and ranging" or "laser imaging, detection, and ranging") is a method for determining ranges by targeting an object or a surface with a laser and measuring the time for the reflected light to return to the receiver.

LIDAR may operate in a fixed direction (e.g., vertical) or it may scan multiple directions, in which case it is known as LIDAR scanning or 3D laser scanning, a special combination of 3-D scanning and laser scanning.

LIDAR has terrestrial, airborne, and mobile applications.

Robotics is an interdisciplinary branch of electronics and communication, computer science and engineering.

Robotics involves the design, construction, operation, and use of robots.

The goal of robotics is to design machines that can help and assist humans.

Robotics integrates fields of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, information engineering, mechatronics engineering, electronics, biomedical engineering, computer engineering, control systems engineering, software engineering, mathematics, etc.

A self-driving car, also known as an autonomous car (AC), driverless car, or robotic car (robo-car), is a car that is capable of traveling without human input.

Self-driving cars are responsible for perceiving the environment, monitoring important systems, and control, including navigation.

Perception accepts visual and audio data from outside and inside the car and interpret the input to abstractly render the vehicle and its surroundings.

The control system then takes actions to move the vehicle, considering the route, road conditions, traffic controls, and obstacles.

In software and systems engineering, the phrase use case is a polyseme with two senses: A usage scenario for a piece of software; often used in the plural to suggest situations where a piece of software may be useful.

A sensor is a device that produces an output signal for the purpose of sensing a physical phenomenon.
