Abstract
A LIDAR system includes a LIDAR chip and local electronics that receive signals from the LIDAR chip. The local electronics are configured to operate one or more components on the LIDAR chip such that the LIDAR chip transmits an optical data signal from the LIDAR chip such that optical data signal includes data generated from the signals received from the LIDAR chip.
Claims19
A LIDAR system, comprising:
- a LIDAR chip;
- and
- local electronics that receive a signal from the LIDAR chip, the local electronics operating one or more components on the LIDAR chip so as to transmit an optical data signal from the LIDAR chip, the optical data signal carrying data generated from the signal received from the LIDAR chip.
The system of claim 13, wherein the LIDAR chip configured to generate a composite light signal that includes light from a comparative signal and light from a reference signal,
- the reference signal including light from the outgoing LIDAR signal that has not exited from the LIDAR chip,
- the comparative signal including light from the LIDAR input signal.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
