  • Publication number: 20240142626
    Abstract: A system and method receive a first beam pattern from an optical source that includes optical beams transmitted towards a target. The system and method measure a first vertical angle between at least two of the optical beams along a first axis relative to the FMCW LIDAR system. The system and method calculate a second beam pattern based on the first vertical angle and a pivot point. The second beam pattern produces a second vertical angle between the two optical beams. The system and method adjust one or more components from a first position that forms the first beam pattern to a second position that forms the second beam pattern for transmission towards the target. The system and method receive one or more return optical beams from the target, based on the second beam pattern, to produce a plurality of points to form the point cloud.

  • Patent number: 11675085
    Abstract: A system and method include receiving a first beam pattern from an optical source that comprises a plurality of optical beams transmitted towards a target causing different spaces to form between each optical beam. The system and method include measuring a vertical angle between at least two of the optical beams along a first axis and calculating a second beam pattern based on the vertical angle and a pivot point that causes the optical beams to be transmitted towards the target with substantially uniform spacing. The system and method include adjusting, at the pivot point, one or more components to form the second beam pattern to adjust the plurality of different spaces to the substantially uniform spacing for transmission towards the target. The system and method include receiving return optical beams from the target to produce a plurality of points to form the point cloud.
