Zusammenfassung:Various implementations of a LiDAR system disclosed herein include two laser sources configured to generate a first laser beam and a second laser beam, a first vertically scanning mirror configured to rotate about a first axis, a second vertically scanning mirror configured to rotate about a second axis, wherein the first axis and second axis are in the same plane and may be parallel to each other, and a polygonal mirror configured to rotate around a third axis, wherein the third axis is orthogonal to each of the first axis and the second axis, wherein the first vertical scanning mirror is configured to direct the first laser beam towards the polygonal mirror and the first vertical scanning mirror is configured to direct the first laser beam towards the polygonal mirror. Alternative implementations may include a combination of collection lenses and detectors to detect reflected laser beams.
