摘要： An electromagnetic wave detection apparatus causes electromagnetic waves incident on a reference surface to propagate in a particular direction using each of the pixels, a detector to detect electromagnetic waves incident on a detection surface, and a second propagation unit that includes a first surface opposing the reference surface, a second surface opposing the detection surface, and a third surface intersecting the first and second surface. The third surface causes electromagnetic waves propagating in a first direction to propagate in a second direction. The first surface causes electromagnetic waves propagating in a second direction to be incident on the reference surface and causes electromagnetic waves re-incident from the reference surface to propagate in a third direction. The third surface causes electromagnetic waves propagating in the third direction to propagate in a fourth direction. The second surface emits electromagnetic waves propagating in the fourth direction to the detection surface.

摘要： A micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) micro-mirror arrays with an aperiodic structure is described. This avoids the undesired noise of sidelobes generated by the gaps between rows of mirrors, where a periodic structure forms a diffraction pattern. A MEMS apparatus has a MEMS mirror array structure with a plurality of rows. The widths of the rows are sized to be different, so that the pattern of gaps between rows is aperiodic. This has the effect of spreading diffraction nodes beyond the 0 order, thus limiting the interference of diffracted nodes and improving the signal to noise ratio. In particular, the width of a mirror will vary in different rows, while all of the mirrors in a particular row will have the same width and same size.

摘要： A receiving device for an optical detection appliance for receiving optical reception signals, in particular of a transmitting device of the detection appliance, that are reflected at an object (18), a detection appliance and a driver assistance system are described. The receiving device comprises at least one optical sensor (36) comprising at least one detection surface (38) with at least one row (44) with a number of optical detection regions (40, 42) extending along a first extension direction (46) of the at least one detection surface (38). At least two of the detection regions (40, 42) can be analysed separately from each other for positional resolution of a received signal. The respective extents of at least two detection regions (40, 42) are different, at least when viewed along the first extension direction (46).

摘要： A method for controlling an opto-electronic measuring device for radiation based object point measuring such as a laser tracker, laser scanner, multi beam scanner, laser profiler, scanning total station, flash lidar, airborne scanning lidar or scanning multi station. The power of the emitted measurement radiation is object individually automatically varied specific for a direction and distance to respective objects whereby the power is adjusted in such a way that it does not exceed a predefined distance dependent power limit applying to the respective object distance precisely when the measurement radiation is emitted in the respective object direction.

摘要： An optical device includes: a first mirror having a first reflecting surface extending in a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; a second mirror having a second reflecting surface; an optical waveguide layer that is located between the first and second mirrors and propagates light in the first direction; and an optical element that is disposed on the first mirror and emits incident light in a direction different from an incident direction. The optical element emits (1) incident light entering from the optical waveguide layer through the first mirror in a direction whose first direction component is smaller than that of an incident direction of the incident light by refraction and/or diffraction or (2) incident light entering from the outside in a direction whose first direction component is larger than that of an incident direction by refraction and/or diffraction.

摘要： There is provided a sensor device, a sensor module, and methods for determining a position of a light source. The sensor device comprises a plurality of sensor units, each sensor unit having a respective sensor area. The sensor device also comprises a mask disposed above the plurality of sensor units and arranged such that incident light from the light source will illuminate different regions of the sensor area of each one of the sensor units depending on the position of the light source relative to the sensor device. The position of the light source may therefore be determined based on which regions of the sensor area of the sensor units are illuminated. Further, each sensor unit is arranged to be controlled by a respective unit controller to determine the position of the light source.

摘要： A method for processing a point cloud generated by a light detection and ranging system, includes: receiving a first measurement generated by the light detection and ranging system; retrieving a plurality of second measurements that are adjacent to the first measurement; calculating a first parameter by using distances of the first measurement and the plurality of the second measurements, the first parameter indicating a degree of continuum of the first measurement relative to the plurality of the second measurements; and determining whether the first measurement represents a measurement of noises by using the first parameter.
