er... LIDAR needs ambient light now? Also if you look on Google Street View, the pedestrian entered the road from a median crossing that you can see straight down the middle of from the road hundreds of feet away. I bet they don't release the footage from the car though ;)

Sensor Fusion typically merges LiDAR with stereoscopic camera feeds, the latter requiring ambient light.
