Abstract:
A beam scanning apparatus capable of adjusting a refraction angle of transmitted light and scanning a beam to a desired location is provided. In addition, an optical apparatus capable of sensing light reflected from an external object and extracting information about the external object is provided. The beam scanning apparatus includes a rotary meta lens having a plurality of meta areas in which a plurality of fine phase shift elements are arranged, and a rotation drive device that rotates the rotary meta lens. The plurality of meta areas are configured to direct transmitted light to different locations in a scanning area.
