    Abstract: The lidar system includes a light source array in which a plurality of point light sources is simultaneously turned on to generate a laser beam in a form of a surface light source in a flash mode, and positions of the point light sources that are simultaneously turned on are sequentially shifted to generate a laser beam in a form of a point light source or line light source in a scan mode, a light scanner, and a receiving sensor receiving the laser beam and converting the received laser beam into an electrical signal through activated pixels. According to the lidar system, one or more of an autonomous vehicle, an AI device, and an external device may be linked with an artificial intelligence module, a drone ((Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, UAV), a robot, an AR (Augmented Reality) device, a VR (Virtual Reality) device, a device associated with 5G services, etc.
