"You know, you should do a story that explains the difference between lidar and radar, and how they work in your car. That stuff sounds cool, but I don’t know anything about it”. 

Lidar means Light Detection and Ranging, and radar means Radio Detection and Ranging. 

Both radar and lidar do the same job of locating and sizing up objects that are far away. Both also work by bouncing signals off of things in their path, counting the time until those signals return, and using the information to create an image. With lidar, the emitted signal is light; with radar, it’s radio waves.
