Concealed light detection and ranging system

摘要

A concealed light detection and ranging system (LIDAR) for detecting, confusing, and jamming external laser, radar, infrared and other varieties of velocity and position detectors. The LIDAR mounts in numerous different locations on a vehicle such as the brake light, grill, door handle, etc. By utilizing a plethora of locations on the vehicle to receive and transmit light signals, the LIDAR allows generated light pulses to be carried by a network of fiber optic cables to the front, rear, top and sides of the vehicle. This ubiquitous positioning of the LIDAR on the vehicle allows for efficient reception and emission of light pulses to detect and/or, jam LIDAR guns, parking sensors, and proximity sensors without the need for the electronics to be exposed or mounted in the actual reception and transmission locations. When configured to detect lasers, the LIDAR further may include a laser receiver and pulse shaping device.

主权项

1. A concealed light detection and ranging system, said concealed light detection and ranging system comprising:
a jamming head for a concealed light detection and ranging system, said jamming head comprising a housing configured to be concealed in a vehicle out of line-of-sight with a second light detection and ranging system, sensor, or detection unit, said housing comprising a face operatively joined to said housing, said face comprising at least one input port, said at least one input port comprising at least one mating connector for coupling said at least one input port with at least one input sensing fiber optic cable, said at least one input sensing fiber optic cable comprising at least one input sensing lens, said input sensing lens being dislocated from the concealed housing but optically coupled to said jamming head remotely through said at least one input sensing fiber optic cable and operable for receiving an inward illumination, said face further comprising at least one output port, said at least one output port comprising said at least one mating connector for coupling said at least one output port with at least one output fiber optic cable, said at least one output fiber optic cable comprising at least one output lens dislocated from the concealed housing but optically coupled to said jamming head remotely through said at least one output fiber optic cable and, wherein the concealed light detection and ranging system is configured to be concealed in a vehicle wherein only a first distal end of the input sensing fiber optic cable and a second distal end of the output fiber optic cable is configured to be in line-of-sight with a second light detection and ranging system, sensor, or detection unit.
