Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to the field of environment sensing, and more particularly to cost-effective Time of Flight (ToF) lidar sensor apparatus for three-dimensional mapping and object detection, tracking and/or classification.
  • TOF Time of Flight
  • a lidar sensor is a light detection and ranging sensor. It is an optical remote sensing module that can measure the distance to a target or objects in a landscape, by irradiating the target or landscape with light, using pulses from a laser, and measuring the time it takes photons to travel to said target or landscape and return after reflection to a receiver in the lidar module. Lidar sensors based on mechanical motion achieve a wide field of view.
  • the cost and resolution of mechanical-motion lidar sensors containing multiple discrete individually packaged lasers are not optimal, as having a plurality of individually-packaged lasers is costly and scanning the environment in planes defined by individual collimated lasers does not achieve an acceptable resolution in some applications, especially ones where the lidar mounting platform is static (e.g., on a pole for use in road/intersection/traffic monitoring) or when the lidar mounting platform is generally mobile but has scenarios where it is static (e.g., a vehicle stopped at a traffic light that needs to sense pedestrians across the intersection, a situation where it cannot benefit from the laser beam sweeping obtained when the vehicle is moving/shaking/vibrating).
  • static e.g., on a pole for use in road/intersection/traffic monitoring
  • the lidar mounting platform is generally mobile but has scenarios where it is static (e.g., a vehicle stopped at a traffic light that needs to sense pedestrians across the intersection, a situation where it cannot benefit from the laser beam sweeping obtained when the vehicle is moving/shak
  • US 5,455,669 discloses a laser range finding apparatus comprising a mirror mounted for rotation along a vertical axis parallel to the vertical axis of light from a pulsed laser being emitted for deflection into the measurement region, and angularly inclined with respect to the plane of rotation and the vertical axis to cause pulsed light from the collimated laser to be diverted over the planar measurement field and reflected light from the measurement region to be received from the planar measurement region and diverted along a vertical path to a photoreceiver
