Until you have multiple cars trying to project multiple arrays of infrared dots onto objects 20 meters away in bright sunlight and then getting an accurate reading on which of the array kerfuffle is theirs.

Does radar have this crosstalk problem as well?
A very quickly pulsed projector and a correspondingly short exposure would strongly decrease the chance of observing someone else’s dots. It would improve performance in bright light as well.
Good point!
If I remember right, the Kinect actually still handled this reasonably well for a couple of overlapping sensors. In a driving scenario other cars' lightfields should also be blurred.
