+I recently attended a lecture on autonomous cars.  They covered their use of long-range and mid-range radar systems to help create a world map that the car uses to navigate.

+I also found the [[http://www.success-project.eu/|SUCCESS]] project, which is promising a cheap radar system in the future.
