The focus of the work was on alternative jet fuels that could be available commercially in the next decade using primarily North American resources. The prospects for FT jet fuels depend crucially on construction of a few pioneer commercial plants in the next few years. From Hileman et al. Click to enlarge. million bpd.

Today, commercially available high-end LiDAR systems can range from $1,000 to upwards of $70,000, which can limit their applications where cost must be minimized. Applications such as autonomous vehicles and robotics heavily depend on LiDAR, and an expensive LiDAR module is a major obstacle to their use in commercial products.
