In the past, discussions about LiDAR focused more on lasers, detectors, and scanning mechanisms. Today, an increasing number of manufacturers are designing their own custom ASICs and SoCs (System on Chip), enabling chips to take on a growing share of signal and data processing tasks. So, what exactly are these chips inside LiDAR processing? 01. Why Doesn't LiDAR Receive Ready-Made Point Clouds? What LiDAR actually receives is reflected light. After the photodetectors convert these optical signal
