Self-driving cars don’t guess the road ahead—they measure it in real time. Autonomous vehicles rely on a fusion of LiDAR, radar, cameras, and AI to build a constantly updating model of their surroundings. LiDAR fires millions of laser pulses per second to create a precise 3D map of cars, lanes, pedestrians, and obstacles. Radar tracks motion and speed through rain, fog, and darkness. Cameras handle color, text, and context like traffic lights and road signs. Artificial intelligence merges all this sensor data into a single decision-making system that reacts in milliseconds. The result is a vehicle that processes more data per second than a human driver ever could. This sensor-driven perception is what makes autonomous driving possible—and why it’s reshaping road safety.
