You don't understand what Dojo does. Its a full compute platform for processing the massive input of video files from the fleet and crunching it down for use by the Neural Nets. Instead of using racks of NVIDIA GPUs they can use this platform for increased scale, decreased cost and more work per watt. It's got nothing to do with lidar and radar - that's in the car.

NASA Creates First Global Forest Map Using Lasers 55

MikeCapone writes "Scientists, using three NASA satellites, have created a first-of-its-kind map that details the height of the world's forests. The data was collected from NASA's ICESat, Terra and Aqua satellites. The latter two satellites are responsible for most of NASA's Gulf spill imagery. The data collected will help scientists understand how the world's forests both store and process carbon. While there are many local and regional canopy maps, this is the very first global map using a uniform method for measure."
