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. |
