Driven by modern technology, light-linked radar (LIDAR), as a key photoelectric sensing technology, is being widely used in the field of obstacle detection and precise tracking. By emitting high-frequency laser pulses and receiving their reflected signals, optically connected radar can quickly and accurately obtain three-dimensional spatial information of the surrounding environment, thereby playing an important role in many fields such as autonomous driving, industrial automation, and environmental monitoring.
Technical principles and working mechanism
The working principle of light-linked radar is based on lidar technology, which calculates the distance and shape of the target object by emitting a laser beam and measuring the time delay of the light signal reflected from the target object. This technology utilizes high-precision time measurement and spatial resolution capabilities to detect and track objects of various sizes, shapes and surface properties, whether during the day or night, on flat roads or in complex environments.
