visual detection and ranging

Visual detection and ranging (ViDAR) is a technology that utilizes optical sensors, such as cameras or other imaging devices, to detect and track objects in the surrounding environment. Unlike traditional radar systems that rely on radio waves, ViDAR operates by analyzing visual data to identify and locate targets. This technology is commonly used in various applications, including surveillance, navigation, and remote sensing, offering advantages such as high resolution and the ability to detect objects with low radar cross-sections.
