Abstract
A method for reducing interference in a light ranging and detection (LiDAR) system is provided. The method comprises receiving noise by a light detector of the LiDAR system, determining whether the received noise is caused by interference from at least one other LiDAR system, and in accordance with a determination that the detected noise is caused by interference from the at least one other LiDAR system, de-synchronizing the LiDAR system with the at least one other LiDAR system.
Claims24
A method for reducing interference in a light ranging and detection (LiDAR) system, the method comprising:
- receiving noise by a light detector of the LiDAR system;
- determining whether the received noise is caused by interference from at least one other LiDAR system;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that the detected noise is caused by interference from the at least one other LiDAR system, de-synchronizing the LiDAR system with the at least one other LiDAR system.
A LIDAR system for reducing interference in the LiDAR system, comprising:
- one or more processors,
- a memory device, and
- processor-executable instructions stored in the memory device, the processor-executable instructions comprising instructions for:
- receiving noise by a light detector of the LiDAR system;
- determining whether the received noise is caused by interference from at least one other LiDAR system;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that the detected noise is caused by interference from the at least one other LiDAR system, de-synchronizing the LiDAR system with the at least one other LiDAR system.
A vehicle comprising a LiDAR system, the LiDAR system comprising one or more processors and memory, wherein the LiDAR system is configured to perform a method, the method comprising:
- receiving noise by a light detector of the LiDAR system;
- determining whether the received noise is caused by interference from at least one other LiDAR system;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that the detected noise is caused by interference from the at least one other LiDAR system, de-synchronizing the LiDAR system with the at least one other LiDAR system.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform a process including:
- receiving noise by a light detector of a LiDAR system;
- determining whether the received noise is caused by interference from at least one other LiDAR system;
- and
- in accordance with a determination that the detected noise is caused by interference from the at least one other LiDAR system, de-synchronizing the LiDAR system with the at least one other LiDAR system.
