LIGHT RANGING WITH MOVING SENSOR ARRAY |
摘要 |
A light ranging device is mounted on a moveable platform, for example an airplane. The light ranging device may include an illumination source for providing a pulse of light, beam shaping optics to form a beam of light directed at a target, and collection optics for providing reflected light of the beam to a light-sensitive sensor array. A processor may determine range to the target based on spatial displacement of received light on the sensor array compared to expected position of the light due to platform movement. |

1. A light ranging system for measuring distances from a moving platform to a target, comprising:
an illumination source couplable to a moveable platform, the illumination source capable of being pulsed to form a pulse of light to be directed towards said target; a light-sensitive sensor array; collection optics to image reflections of said light from a target onto said sensor array during movement of the platform, whereby position of said image on said sensor array corresponds to distance between said platform and said target. |
