Autonomous vehicles (AVs), more commonly known as driverless vehicles, are arguably the next big revolution in automotive technology. But with this revolution comes a challenge: how do you ensure onboard artificial intelligence (AI) can respond in real-world traffic conditions? One solution is to capture real-world data using light detection and ranging (LiDAR).
Glaucoma patients often exhibit an increase in their intraocular pressure (IOP) levels during their sleep, limiting the ability of clinicians to accurately diagnose this disease in many potential glaucoma patients. Several novel contact lens sensing devices that monitor IOP-related changes in an eye over 24 hours have been developed.

The potential degradation of asphalt pavements results in expensive construction work and can be a serious safety concern for those traveling on affected roads. Although regular maintenance is often performed on paved roads, an urgent need for a precise pavement monitoring system remains. As a result, several smart sensor networks have been developed to monitor asphalt pavements' structural health in real-time.
