SIGNALLAUFZEITSELEKTIVES FLASH-LIDAR-SYSTEM UND VERFAHREN FÜR DESSEN BETRIEB

The invention relates to a time-of-flight selective flash LiDAR system comprising an emitter for emitting pulsed illumination radiation into an object space; a detection unit with an image sensor for detecting the radiation reflected back from the object space; and a sensor control device for time-of-flight selection, wherein the sensor control device is configured such that the back-reflected radiation is detected separately from a first measuring surface and a second measuring surface and wherein the second measuring surface is located at a greater distance from the detection unit than the first measuring surface. The invention is characterized in that there is an illumination field control arrangement which is synchronized in time with the sensor control device and is configured in such a way that the illumination radiation generates a first illumination field with a first solid angle extension on the first measuring surface and a second illumination field with a second solid angle extension on the second measuring surface, and the first solid angle extension is greater than the second solid angle extension.
