Eye-safe scanning lidar with virtual protective housing

An eye-safe light detection and ranging system includes a virtual protective housing. A short range pulse is emitted at every measurement point in a field of view before conditionally emitting a long range pulse. Short range pulses result in accessible emissions that are eye-safe at short distances...

Zusammenfassung:An eye-safe light detection and ranging system includes a virtual protective housing. A short range pulse is emitted at every measurement point in a field of view before conditionally emitting a long range pulse. Short range pulses result in accessible emissions that are eye-safe at short distances and long range pulses result in accessible emissions that are eye-safe at longer distances.
