  • LASER RADAR SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20180100738
    Abstract: A laser radar system is installed in a moving body and includes a plurality of scanning type laser radar devices which detect distances to an object. The scanning type laser radar device has a first direction and a second direction in a scanning range. In the first direction, a detectable distance to an object having identical reflectance is longer. In the second direction, a detectable distance to an object having identical reflectance is shorter. The scanning range of one scanning type laser radar device overlaps with the scanning range of another scanning type laser radar device adjacent to the one scanning type laser radar device such that the detectable area in the first direction of the one scanning type laser radar device overlaps with the detectable area in the second direction of the other scanning type laser radar device.
