Thermal Cameras: Will Autonomous Vehicles Still Need Visible-Light Cameras?
Visible light cameras are needed for future AV and ADAS applications alongside thermal cameras which are vital for driving safely in dark and harsh weather conditions.

It’s critical for autonomous vehicles to know if their sensors lost accuracy or calibration. Learn about our unique capabilities to lead the world to the next level of self driving cars.
We live in a colorful world where road signs are in colors for easy detection and understanding. The risk level increases dramatically at night and unfortunately that is when most of the fatal accidents occur.
Perceiving the world in 3D is vital. This is probably why humans have two eyes. If this is true for the human brain shouldn’t this apply to autonomous vehicles as well?
Harsh weather and lighting conditions compromise Autonomous Vehicle camera performance. Additional imaging systems are required such as thermal cameras to reach full self driving. Foresight achieves complete AI sensor fusion between LWIR and RGB cameras.
