Abstract: A light detection and ranging system can have a light source coupled to a polygon reflector having a plurality of facets. A controller can be connected to the light source and directed to generate and execute a calibration strategy that alters an orientation of the light source in response to identification of a position of at least one facet of the plurality of facets.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for adaptively adjusting amplifier gain based on detected distance to a target in a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) system. In some embodiments, the amplifier amplifies detected pulses obtained from a photodetector, and the gain is adjusted from among at least two selectable gain modes responsive to a measured time of flight (ToF) for the pulses. A first range of gain levels can be used for targets that are within a first maximum distance range, and a second range of gain levels can be used for targets that are beyond the first maximum distance range. Each mode can extend from a minimum to a maximum value along a selected linear slope. A gain adjustment circuit can use a Gilbert Cell or a multiplier and fully differential amplifier arrangement.

Abstract: Devices and methods are disclosed for trusted listening. In some examples, an apparatus can include an audio receiving device having a microphone configured to capture sound and produce an audio signal, a processing unit configured to add a trusted signature to the audio signal, and an output configured to provide the audio signal. Further, a method of trusted listening can receive a first audio signal representing a real-time sound, generate a trusted signature in an audible format, and produce a second audio signal including the trusted signature.
