Radar is emerging as a key element of autonomous perception as ADAS advances toward higher levels of automation, offering long-range detection, precise velocity measurement, and reliable performance across a wide range of weather and lighting contexts.

Building on the themes explored in our technology insight, this follow-up live roundtable brings together three subject-matter experts to examine how radar technology is evolving, and how it complements cameras and LiDAR in next-generation autonomous systems.

The session will address:

• How effectively automotive radar is fulfilling its role alongside cameras and LiDAR in current ADAS and self-driving systems
• Which technical and integration barriers are the most critical to overcome first
• Which advances in radar design, signal processing, and AI-driven perception show the most promise, and how close they are to production-ready performance
• Whether radar’s role in the autonomous sensor stack is expanding beyond its traditional strengths
• Whether radar will ultimately remain a complementary sensor or become a central pillar of the perception stack on the path to scalable Level 4+ autonomy
