Automobiles are among the most complex products that humanity has ever made. Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and, moreover, self-driving cars are even more sophisticated. Included technologies are: state-of-the-art software, AI mechanics, processors and hardware, and sensors that feed all algorithms with information about the environment. Lidar is considered a primary sensor when it comes to self-driving cars. Production cars rely on cameras and radars basically due to their low price and robustness. We even may notice an indirect challenge between lidars and radars. Lidar . . .

Most Tier-1 and Tier-2 radar manufacturers such as Veoneer (Autoliv), Bosch, Continental, Delphi, Valeo, etc., are developing new automotive radars to overcome new challenges with autonomy. Most major players do not like to disclose what they are currently developing. Therefore, we can only discuss their existing sensors. On the contrary, startups usually do not hesitate to tell us much more about their products. This article highlights some of the major improvements we are likely to see in future radars covering the new startups.
