In order to solve the technical problems that in the prior art, a laser radar is limited by the size of a scanning mirror, and part of laser beams fall on the area outside the scanning mirror to form stray light, and the like, fig. 1 shows a structural block diagram of a laser radar system according to an embodiment of the present invention, and the technical solution of the present invention is described below with reference to fig. 1. As shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a laser radar system, which may include an emitting module 1 and a scanning module 2, where the emitting module 1 and the scanning module 2 are sequentially disposed along a first optical path;
the emitting module 1 comprises a laser emitting unit 11 and a telecentric lens group 12, wherein the laser emitting unit 11 is provided with a plurality of light sources and is used for emitting a plurality of laser beams; the telecentric lens group 12 is configured to collimate each laser beam into a parallel light beam, and converge and irradiate the parallel light beams to the scanning module 2 along a first light path; the scanning module 2 is used for reflecting the converged parallel light beams to a three-dimensional space and receiving and reflecting echo light beams reflected by a target to be measured.
Specifically, when the laser radar system is in a working state, the plurality of light sources of the laser emitting unit 11 emit a plurality of laser beams and respectively irradiate the laser beams to the telecentric lens group 12, the telecentric lens group 12 collimates each laser beam into a parallel light beam, and makes each parallel light beam converge along a first light path and irradiate the scanning module 2, the scanning module 2 reflects each received parallel light beam converged by the telecentric lens group 12 to the three-dimensional space for detection, a target to be detected in the three-dimensional space is reflected to form an echo light beam, and the scanning module 2 receives the echo light beam and reflects the echo light beam to the receiving module of the laser radar system. The first optical path may be understood as an emission optical path, i.e. an optical path from the emission of the plurality of laser beams to the incidence to the three-dimensional space. By applying the scheme, each laser beam is collimated by the telecentric lens group 12 and converged to the scanning module 2 along the first light path, so that the laser beams emitted at different angles can be effectively collimated and are emitted to the scanning module 2 finally, and the emitting efficiency of the laser is ensured to the maximum extent; and laser beam parts emitted by a plurality of light sources are prevented from dispersedly falling outside the scanning module 2 in the working process of the laser radar system, and stray light is formed to cause a near blind area, so that the measurement precision is not influenced.

In some embodiments, the scanning module 2 may be an electrostatic galvanometer, an electromagnetic galvanometer, a piezoelectric galvanometer, an electrothermal galvanometer, or the like.
