Abstract: A LIDAR system includes a LIDAR unit. The LIDAR unit includes a housing defining a cavity. The LIDAR unit further include a plurality of emitters disposed on a circuit board within the cavity. Each of the emitters emits a laser beam along a transmit path. The LIDAR system further includes a first optic rotatable about a first axis at a first rotational speed and a second optic rotatable about a second axis at a second rotational speed that is faster than the first rotational speed. The first optic is positioned relative to the LIDAR unit such that a plurality of laser beams exiting the LIDAR unit pass through the first optic. The second optic is positioned relative to the first optic such that each of a plurality of refracted laser beams exiting the prism disk reflect off of the second optic.

Abstract: A LIDAR unit includes a housing defining a cavity. The LIDAR unit further include a plurality of emitters disposed on a circuit board within the cavity. Each of the emitters emits a laser beam along a transmit path. The LIDAR system further includes a first telecentric lens assembly positioned within the cavity and along the transmit path such that the laser beam emitted from each of the plurality of emitters passes through the first telecentric lens assembly. The LIDAR further includes a second telecentric lens assembly positioned within the cavity and along a receive path such that a plurality of reflected laser beams entering the cavity pass through the second telecentric lens assembly. The first telecentric lens assembly and the second telecentric lens assembly each include a field flattening lens and at least one other lens.
