Most people don't have lidar phones, and commissioning this art is about the same price as buying a lidar phone.

> Most people don't have lidar phones

the most popular phones in the US (iPhone pro max and pro) have had lidar cameras for the past 6 models...

  • Some quick googling suggests that in the US, only 60% of people have iphones, and only 50% of iphones in use are pro or max. I would guess that HN skews towards more recent and higher end phones, but also skews towards android. Maybe saying most people don't have lidar is inaccurate, but I think it's still accurate to say the majority of people don't have lidar.

  • Most people don't have lidar phones. The statement is still very true, even if you said US only. What are you trying to say?
