U.S. Lab Reviews Chinese Car Sensors as Lawmakers Push Bans

Idaho National Laboratory is testing whether laser sensors made by China's Hesai and RoboSense — devices that help self-driving cars see their surroundings — could create cybersecurity risks on U.S. vehicles. The industry-funded review may aim to declare the sensors safe. Lawmakers are simultaneously crafting multiple bans. The lab's findings could undercut or accelerate that legislation.
