Abstract: In various embodiments, a lidar system includes a light source configured to emit an output beam comprising pulses of light, and a scanner configured to scan the output beam across a field of regard of the lidar system, wherein the scanner includes a component shaped to optimize at least one of: a noise or a vibration of the scanner. The lidar system includes a receiver configured to detect a received pulse of light, the received pulse of light comprising a portion of one of the emitted pulses of light scattered by a target located a distance from the lidar system.

Abstract: A system comprises a light source, a scanner, a reference reflectivity material, a detector, and a processor. The light source is configured to emit light, and the scanner is configured to scan the emitted light across at least a portion of a reachable region including a field of regard through a window. The reference reflectivity material is included internally within a housing of the system and located in the reachable region but outside the field of regard. The detector is configured to detect at least a portion of the emitted light scattered by the reference reflectivity material. The processor is configured to analyze detected information from the detector to determine an electrical property of the emitted light.
