Abstract
A detection system for a vehicle in an environment includes a lens within an aperture. A line camera is configured to receive light passing through the lens from the environment to generate image data. A LiDAR system is configured to transmit light through the lens to the environment and receive light passing through the lens from the environment to generate range data.
Claims22
A detection system for a vehicle in an environment, comprising:
- a lens within an aperture;
- a line camera configured to receive light passing through the lens from the environment to generate image data;
- and
- a LiDAR system configured to transmit light through the lens to the environment and receive light passing through the lens from the environment to generate range data.
1 more element
A detection system for a vehicle in an environment, comprising:
- a housing defining an aperture;
- a lens within the aperture;
- a time delay integrating (TDI) line camera comprising a plurality of optical receivers configured to receive light within a set region of the electromagnetic spectrum passing through the lens from the environment;
- a plurality of LiDAR transmitters, each LiDAR transmitter configured to transmit a light beam through the lens;
- and
- a plurality of LiDAR receivers, each LiDAR receiver configured to receive a reflected light beam of a corresponding LiDAR transmitter, the reflected light beams passing through the lens from the environment after reflecting off an object in the environment.
