Single detector imaging lidar by digital micromirror device for large field-of-view and mid-range mapping applications

An imaging lidar system is presented which combines the high speed of a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) and the higher range of a 1D collimated scanning output. The system employing 1D line object illumination along with DMD placed at focal plane enables flexible optimization of system metrics, such as field of view, angular resolution, maximum range distance and frame rate.This item from the UA Faculty Publications collection is made available by the University of Arizona with support from the University of Arizona Libraries.
