LiDAR uses pulses of light to detect the objects, much like how radar works using radio waves. These pulses can determine the distance and range of an object, providing much needed data to self-driving cars. For example, to avoid a collision, the LiDAR can detect the distance to an object and apply the brakes to slow down the vehicle. [1]

Waymo—formerly the Google self-driving car project—stands for a new way forward in mobility.
For Tesla, cameras are the keys to the future and its CEO sees a future when cameras will enable Tesla to see through the most adverse weather situations.
Lidar is a fool’s errand,” Elon Musk said. “Anyone relying on lidar is doomed. Doomed!

The Lernaean Hydra or Hydra of Lerna, more often known simply as the Hydra is a serpentine water monster in Greek and Roman mythology. The Hydra possessed many heads, the exact number of which varies according to the source. [1]

Multiple heads are specialized neural networks for image segmentation. They do more than 1000 different tasks because for each detecting task, there can be multiple subtasks that come with it. Shared backbone is a pre-trained neural network that is an important piece when doing transfer learning.

Residual Neural Netwok?
A neural network is a series of algorithms that tries to recognize underlying relationships in a set of data through a process that mimics the way the human brain operates. In this sense, neural networks refer to systems of neurons, either organic or artificial in nature.

Judo team did well on the tournament, so the coach asks them where are they going to eat to celebrate?
Each kid starts screaming their preference (burgers, pizza, etc.), and the coach goes with whatever was the loudest.
Simplified, that's how neural networks work. The circle gets some input (stop sign image), detects certain properties (round edges), and screams when it sees it. The more intense the property, the louder they scream.
