Auf Autos montierte Lidars können Sensoren von Kameras zerstören. Das Phänomen gilt als technologisches Äquivalent dazu, direkt in die Sonne zu starren.
No, the LIDAR is an infrared laser. Invisible and harmless to the human eye, but a phone’s camera can pick it up. And due to the intensity, if going too close, it’ll burn out the pixels of the camera sensor leaving permanent damage.
Thanks, that’s a very good example. 👍
What was confusing about the article, was the stupid part about the problem going away when zooming out? Which in fact is probably switching to another camera.

It was exactly this and people were furiously pointing it out in the comments.
