I would LOVE to get my hands on this tech. Maybe in 5-10 years when the price comes down to commodity level for hackers to play around with. :-)

Since LIDARs impact airflow over the top of a car, is there a way to make LIDARs less spherical and more triangular or elliptical? How would that impact the scans and can that impact be corrected/recalibrated mathematically?
