And this seems to prove him right with $6k - 16k price range. Far too expensive to be practical. Still the potential is there for it to be a useful component for self driving vehicles, only if the price comes down an order of magnitude.
If that were true, sure. But I don't think it's so much better than other sensors for that to be a plausible scenario. Not my field though, so take it with a grain of salt.
