    摘要: The invention relates to the provision of a robotic machine apparatus, a movement navigation system for said robotic machine and a method of providing guidance for said robotic machine within an environment, and most typically, a confined and potentially hazardous environment. The movement navigation is provided to be operate within the environment and provide guidance remotely from personnel who are located outside of said environment. The apparatus includes means to emit at least one signal through a window of said machine and means to receive a reflected return signal from an object in or a surface of the said environment through said or another window so as to provide data to determine the location of the robotic machine and guide the movement of the machine within the environment. At least one optical lens is provided intermediate the signal transmitting means and window and/or signal receiving means and said window, or another window, in order to allow any distortion caused by the signals passing through said at least one window to be reduced or avoided and thereby allow more accurate guidance of the apparatus.

    摘要: Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine FMCW-LiDAR-Distanzmessvorrichtung, bei welcher eine Lichtquelle, insbesondere ein Laser, einen frequenzmodulierten Sendelichtstrahl als ein Sendesignal mit einem vorbestimmten Frequenzhub erzeugt und in einen Messbereich entsendet, ein Lichtempfänger von Objekten in dem Messbereich zurückgestrahltes Licht als Empfangssignal empfängt,
    ein Mischer zumindest einen Teil des Sendesignals mit dem Empfangssignal und mit einer Oszillatorfrequenz mischt, um ein Mischsignal zu generieren, und die Oszillatorfrequenz an einen gewünschten Messbereich angepasst wird, um in dem gewünschten Messbereich eine hohe Messgenauigkeit zu erreichen.

    摘要: Systems and methods for sensing objects are provided. A sensing apparatus can include a sensor comprising a photo-detecting unit configured to absorb (i) a first incident light having a first wavelength to generate a first detecting signal and (ii) a second incident light having a second wavelength to generate a second detecting signal. The sensing apparatus can further include a calculation circuit coupled to the sensor. The calculation circuit can be configured to output a calculating result according to the first detecting signal and the second detecting signal. The sensing apparatus can further include an adjustment circuit coupled to the calculation circuit. The adjustment circuit can be configured to perform an adjustment to one or more functionalities associated with the sensing apparatus according to the calculating result.
