Radar
Radar is an object-detection system that uses radio waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects.
Lidar
Lidar (also called LIDAR, LiDAR, and LADAR) is a surveying method that measures distance to a target by illuminating that target with a pulsed laser light, and measuring the reflected pulses with a sensor.
