I'd agree with others on this thread, this list seems very random. It has consumer facing products, IC suppliers, tier 1 automotive suppliers. Each you'd interact with in different ways and use for different situations/volumes (this may be very unclear to an uninformed reader who just wants to plug something into a raspberry pi)
Some noted gaps:
- This is missing Murata on IMUs (they sell IMU ICs not packaged IMUs)
- Leaving Continental off of the radar section seems like a gap as well, they're a common radar supplier for automotive and autonomous vehicle companies.
- I might differentiate between MEMS micro-mirror based scanning and scanning via spinning. They're fundamentally different and can have very different form-factors/behaviours.
- Adding some suppliers for GPS systems might be useful. Localization systems that integrate IMU/perception inputs may also use GPS, e.g. Swift's Duro https://www.swiftnav.com/duro
