A Survey on Sensors for Autonomous Systems

2020

This paper presents a survey on state-of-the-art sensors for autonomous systems. The key performance parameters along with the operating principle of sensors used in autonomous systems are thoroughly explored. Practical aspects such as performance parameters, sensor output data format, sensor interfaces, size, power consumption, compatible hardware platforms, data analysis, and signal processing complexities are summarized. Such information serves as a practical guide for designing smart sensing systems for autonomous systems.
