A guide to the operating principles, techniques and technology in lidar systems for self driving cars.
Is the distance enough? 100-200 meters seems low at high speeds.
100kph (~65mph) means you have 100*1000/60/60 = 27m/s. A 100-200m range lidar should give you a 4-8 second reaction time. It should be sufficient for a car to respond.
