摘要: A method for detecting objects using a LIDAR system may include controlling a light emission assembly comprising a light source in a manner enabling spatial light modulation to a field of view (FOV) of the LIDAR system to vary during different flash light emissions of the light emission assembly. The method may also include controlling a sensor to detect first reflection signals indicative of reflections of first flash light emissions from objects in the FOV. The method may further include determining a nonuniform spatial light modulation for the light emission assembly based on at least one of the first reflection signals. The method may also include instructing the light emission assembly to emit to the FOV a second flash light emission in accordance with the nonuniform spatial light modulation, and detecting an object in the FOV based on second reflection signals of the second flash light emission.

摘要: A pulsed laser diode driver may include at least one low side switching circuit connected to at least one laser diode. The at least one laser diode may generate at least one light pulse. The low side switching circuit may include an input for receiving energy. The low side switching circuit may also include an inductor configured to store at least a portion of the received energy. Further, the low side switching circuit may include a trigger switch. The trigger switch may cause the inductor to store the portion of the received energy when the trigger switch is closed, and the trigger switch may cause the portion of the received energy stored in the inductor to be delivered to the at least one laser diode after the trigger switch is opened.

摘要: Systems and methods may detect an object within a minimum predetermined distance of a LIDAR system. The LIDAR system may comprise a processor configured to control a light source and a light deflector to illuminate objects located in a space illuminated by the light source; determine a distance to a first object based located within a field of view of a LIDAR sensor; receive, from a supplementary sensor, reflection signals indicative of light reflected from a second object outside the field of view; determine, based on the second reflection signals that the second object is located within a predetermined distance; and regulate, based on the determination, at least one of the light source and the light deflector to prevent an accumulated energy density of light emitted by the light source from exceeding a maximum permissible exposure level.
