Abstract: A scanner of a LiDAR system includes a mirror configured to redirect a light signal emitted by an optical emitter, a first axis scanning system configured to rotate the mirror about a first axis and with respect to the optical emitter, that controls a first angle of emission of the light signal from the LiDAR system into a field of view of the LiDAR system, and a second axis scanning system configured to rotate the mirror about a second axis and with respect to the optical emitter, that controls a second angle of emission of the light signal from the LiDAR system into the field of view. The first axis scanning mechanism is configured to rotate the reflective surface of the mirror at least 45 degrees about the first axis.

Abstract: Das Lichtmodul weist einen Träger (TR) mit Schaltungs-Die auf, wobei auf der Oberseite (TRO) des Trägers (TR) mittels Die-zu-Die-Bondings ein Leuchtdioden-Die (D1D) und ein diesem zugeordnetes Ladungsspeicherbauteil (LSBT) elektrisch mit den Leitungspfad-Anschlussfeldern (TAF1, TAF2) eines Transistors (Tdis) verbunden sind. Die elektrische Verbindung zwischen den beiden Dies und dem Leitungspfad (LPF) des Transistors (Tdis) ist so kurz wie möglich. Oberseitig der beiden Dies befinden sich jeweils ein Anschlussfeld (DAF2, LAF2), die mit einem kurzen Bonddraht (BD1) miteinander verbunden sind. Dieser Entladeschaltkreis ist hinsichtlich der Reduktion parasitärer Induktivitäten und ohmschen Widerstände optimiert. Das Ladungsspeicherbauteil (LSBT) wird mittels einer Aufladeschaltung (B1) aufgeladen, die über einen zweiten Bonddraht (BD2) mit dem Ladungsspeicherbauteil (LSBT) elektrisch verbunden ist. Der zweite Bonddraht (BD2) ist länger als der erste Bonddraht (BD1). Das Lichtmodul kann Teil einer LIDAR-Vorrichtung sein, die ein spezielles Optiksystem aufweisen kann. Die Treiberschaltung für den Transistor (Tdis) kann ebenfalls in besonderer Weise ausgeführt sein.

Abstract: A method for detecting objects using a LIDAR system may include controlling a light emission assembly comprising a light source in a manner enabling spatial light modulation to a field of view (FOV) of the LIDAR system to vary during different flash light emissions of the light emission assembly. The method may also include controlling a sensor to detect first reflection signals indicative of reflections of first flash light emissions from objects in the FOV. The method may further include determining a nonuniform spatial light modulation for the light emission assembly based on at least one of the first reflection signals. The method may also include instructing the light emission assembly to emit to the FOV a second flash light emission in accordance with the nonuniform spatial light modulation, and detecting an object in the FOV based on second reflection signals of the second flash light emission.

Abstract: A signal delay component may be configured to receive a LiDAR output signal including an analog waveform from a LiDAR system, and provide a time-delayed LiDAR output signal including a time-delayed analog waveform. A differential comparator may be configured to receive the LiDAR output signal including the analog waveform and the time-delayed LiDAR output signal including the time-delayed analog waveform, and to provide a digital output signal. A processor may be configured to generate LiDAR data including a distance associated with the LiDAR output signal and an amplitude associated with the LiDAR output signal, the distance being based on a first time associated with a rising edge of the digital output signal, and the amplitude being based on a time difference between the first time associated with the rising edge of the digital output signal and a second time associated with a falling edge of the digital output signal.
