Autonomous Vehicles And Lidar - A Chat With Innoviz Technologies Co-Founder Oren Buskila

Send me a messageElon Musk's exaggerated claims apart, autonomous vehicles are going to have a huge impact on supply chains if they ever make the leap from proof of concept to commercially available.One company working to make that happen is Innoviz Technologies - the Israeli startup selected by BMW to supply their vehicles with lidar (a sensor used in most autonomous vehicle prototypes). I invited Innoviz Technologies co-founder and Chief R&D Officer Oren Buskila to come on the podcast to tell us all about it.We had a great conversation about what Lidar is, why Lidar is necessary for autonomous vehicles, and just how soon autonomous vehicles will be commercially available. I learned loads, I hope you do too...If you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to leave me a voice message over on my SpeakPipe page or just send it to me as a direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn.
