More Information
Summary:A lidar sensor. The lidar sensor includes a light source and a fly eye lens arrangement having a first microlens arrangement and a second microlens arrangement. The first microlens arrangement comprises a plurality of identical first microlenses stacked along a first axis. The second microlens arrangement comprises a plurality of identical second microlenses stacked along a second axis. The fly-eye lens arrangement is configured to generate, based on a light generated by the light source, a scanning beam for scanning an environment of the lidar sensor. The scanning beam includes a first sub-beam generated by the first microlens arrangement and a second sub-beam generated by the second microlens arrangement. Predefined optical properties of the first microlens arrangement and predefined optical properties of the second microlens arrangement differ from one another in order to generate a scanning beam having a predefined light intensity distribution.
