Market Overview

HD map, also known as a high-definition map, is a semantic layer that detects the distance between two destinations and includes other information such as lane placement, road boundaries, curve severity, road surface gradient, and more to help autonomous vehicles navigate. HD maps are created and updated in real time utilizing data collected by various sensors, cameras, and LiDAR. This data enables autonomous vehicles to make smarter decisions while driving. HD maps can also give localization information, which will aid find the vehicle's exact position on the map. With the rapid advances in radar technology and the ability of microprocessors to make choices based on self-improving algorithms, there has been an increase in global interest in automated cars. Autonomous cars help to reduce driver distraction, which causes the bulk of highway deaths. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 94% of highway fatalities are caused by human error or poor driving judgments. These vehicles also have various advantages over conventional automobiles, including enhanced safety, reduced fuel use, traffic congestion, and pollutants. As a result, leading participants in the autonomous driving field concentrate on research and development of autonomous driving technologies.
