A system and method is provided for determining the geographic location of a three-dimensional metrology instrument. The three-dimensional metrology instrument includes a geographic location determination circuit, such as a GPS. The geographic location determination circuit allows the metrology instrument to synchronize the instruments internal clock to allow cooperative measurements with multiple metrology instruments. The geographic location determination circuit further allows for automatic localization of configuration parameters of the metrology instrument. The geographic location determination circuit still further allows for the recording of location when predetermined environmental events occur.

The invention provides a time of flight camera system arranged to resolve the direct path component or the multi-path component of modulated radiation reflected from a target. The camera system includes a time of flight transmitter arranged to transmit modulated radiation at a target, and at least one pattern application structure operating between the transmitter and the target. The pattern application structure operates to apply at least one structured light pattern to the modulated transmitter radiation. The camera system also includes an image sensor configured to measure radiation reflected from a target. The camera system is arranged to resolve from the measurements received the contribution of direct source reflection radiation reflected from the target.

A system and a method for producing an adjustable light pattern are provided herein. The system may include: a transmitter configured to illuminate a scene with a patterned light being adjusted based on predefined criteria; a receiver configured to receive reflections of the adjusted patterned light; and a computer processor configured to control the adjustment of the patterned light and further analyze the received reflections, to yield a depth map of objects within the scene, wherein the transmitter may include: a light source configured to produce a light beam; a first reflector tiltable approximately along a line on an x-y plane in a Cartesian x-y-z coordinate system; and a second reflector tiltable along a z-axis in said coordinate system, wherein the reflectors are tilted along their respective axes back and forth so as to divert the light beam for creating the adjusted patterned light.

Optical imaging and optical detection modules (100) that include sensors such as time-of-flight, TOF, sensors. Various implementations are described that, in some instances, can help reduce the amount of optical cross-talk between active detection pixels (124) and reference pixels (128) and/or can facilitate the ability of the sensor to determine an accurate phase difference to be used, for example, in distance calculations.

A chip-scale scanning lidar includes a two dimensional (2D) scanning micromirror for a transmit beam and a 2D scanning micromirror for a receive beam, a laser diode and a photodetector, a first waveguide and first grating outcoupler coupled to a front facet of the laser diode, a second waveguide and a second grating outcoupler coupled to a rear facet of the laser diode on a substrate. A first fixed micromirror, a second micromirror, a third micromirror, and a focusing component are in a dielectric layer bonded to the substrate over the laser diode and photodetector. The photodetector is optically coupled to the second fixed micromirror and the third fixed micromirror for coherent detection.
