Zusammenfassung:A light detection and ranging (LIDAR) apparatus is provided that includes a dispersive element and an optical circuit. The optical circuit includes optics to project an optical beam onto a field of view and the dispersive element, operatively coupled with the optics, is to deflect the optical beam based on a wavelength of the optical beam, wherein the dispersive element shifts the field of view across a target in response to changes of the wavelength of the optical beam.
