PIDAR: 3D Laser Range Finder
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Pidar provides 3 dimensional points to a client that represent a 3 dimensional environment. An infrared laser sensor provides distance data along a Z axis and angular data on an x axis. A motor rotates the laser mechanism around a Y axis; this supplies the system with the necessary data in order to create a 3D point cloud representation of an environment. The Pidar utilizes a Linux operating system in order to manage the flow of information from the external sensors to an independent client.

متن کاملProgress in Mini-helicopter Tracking with a 3d Laser Range-finder
This paper approaches detection and tracking of an aero-modelling helicopter with a laser range-finder. The sensing device can complement vision for aerial vehicle control in operations such as landing or taking off from the ground. To this end, a conventional 2D laser scanner has been adapted for 3D operation by means of a motorized base. First experimental results are presented for a small-sc...
متن کاملUnified Pulsed Laser Range Finder and Velocimeter using Ultra-Fast Time-To-Digital Converter
In this paper, we present a high accuracy laser range finder and velocimeter using ultra-fast time-to-digital converter (TDC). The system operation is based on the measuring the round-trip time of a narrow laser pulse. A low-dark current high-speed PIN photodiode is used to detect the triggered laser beam and to produce start signal. The pulsed laser diode generates 45W optical power at 30ns du...
