Which outcome occurs when a dirty lens obscures a LiDAR sensor on an autonomous tractor?

💡 Explanation

Obscured LiDAR sensors result in tractors misinterpreting their surroundings because of reduced light transmission through the lens causing flawed distance measurement, a process known as optical attenuation; therefore, the tractor navigates based on incorrect range estimates, rather than maintaining targeted crop parameters.
