The technology commonly applied in autonomous vehicle navigation includes LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), computer vision, and GPS systems. These technologies work together to create a precise understanding of the vehicle's surroundings. LIDAR generates a 3D map of the environment by emitting laser pulses, while computer vision processes visual information from cameras. Coupled with GPS for location tracking, these systems enable autonomous vehicles to navigate efficiently and safely, identify obstacles, and make real-time driving decisions.
