Hyper Temporal Lidar with Switching Between a Baseline Scan Mode and a Pulse Burst Mode

A lidar system comprises (1) a lidar transmitter that switches from a baseline scan pattern to a pulse burst mode in response to a detection of a target in a field of view for the lidar transmitter, wherein the lidar transmitter transmits a pulse burst toward the target when in the pulse burst mode,...

More Information
Summary:A lidar system comprises (1) a lidar transmitter that switches from a baseline scan pattern to a pulse burst mode in response to a detection of a target in a field of view for the lidar transmitter, wherein the lidar transmitter transmits a pulse burst toward the target when in the pulse burst mode, and (2) a lidar receiver that refines an angle to the target based on returns from the pulse burst.
