- Comment on Volvo EX90’s Lidar Sensor Will Fry Your Phone’s Camera 3 months ago:
So how close can you get your eyeballs to the sensor? Even if IR isn’t in the visible spectrum, that doesn’t mean it can’t damage your eyes at high power levels. If anything, its more dangerous because you won’t notice it.
