<p>According to one embodiment, a laser detection and ranging system includes a beam forming element that is optically coupled to a light source. The light source generates a light beam that is split by the beam forming element into multiple beamlets and directed toward a target. At least one of the beamlets are reflected from the target as backscattered light that is received by a detector that generates a signal indicative of a characteristic of the target.</p> |
