Optical system or motor vehicle has sensor units at different positions in or on vehicle with transmission and reception optics, central module with measurement, control and changeover units

摘要

The system has a measurement unit that emits an optical transmission signal and detects a reflected reception signal and a control unit that assesses reflection objects based on a transition time measurement. Sensor units at different positions (10-15,26-28) in or on the motor vehicle (1) contain transmission optics and reception optics. A central module (2) has a measurement unit, the control unit and a changeover unit for selecting sensor units.
