Attractive Features
LIDAR means light detection and ranging. This is a technology used in self-driving cars. NASA is now exploring the possibility of using LIDAR technology to develop a landing system. What it does is send out pulses that hit on the objects and returns to the sensor. This mechanism will help us know how far the objects are.
