Abstract: System and method of controlling operation of a device in real-time. The system includes an optical sensor having a steerable optical field of view for obtaining image data and a radar unit having a steerable radar field of view for obtaining radar data. A controller may be configured to steer a first one of the optical sensor and the radar unit to a first region of interest and a second one of the optical sensor and the radar unit to the second region of interest. The controller may be configured to steer both the optical sensor and the radar unit to the first region of interest. The radar data and the image data are fused to obtain a target location and a target velocity. The controller is configured to control operation of the device based in part on at least one of the target location and the target velocity.

Abstract: A vehicle, Lidar system for the vehicle and method of scanning an object with the Lidar system. The Lidar system includes a first quarter wave plate, a first deflection stage and a detector. The first quarter wave plate produces a circularly polarized scanning beam of light. The first deflection stage selects a rotation direction for a polarization vector of the scanning beam and deflects the scanning beam by a selected angle based on the selected rotation direction of the polarization vector. The detector receives a reflected beam that is a reflection of the scanning beam from the object.
