Beyond cameras: Looking at sensors for self-driving cars

I had the fun and educational experience of moderating a panel on sensors for cars at Electronic Imaging 2020 recently. Of course there were cameras, but much of the focus was on how lidars, radars, and thermal imaging can complement traditional visible light images. I’ll be curious how innovations in these areas impact our traditional notion of photography as they become less-expensive. As regular readers know, I’ve already done a lot of experimenting with thermal imaging for creative photography. You can read .
