  • Patent number: 11520045
    Abstract: A method for detecting objects using a LIDAR system. The method includes emitting a first light beam scanning in a scanning direction in an emission direction at a first instant, allocating a first propagation time between the first transmission instant and a first receiving instant of a first reflection of the first light beam to the emission direction, emitting in the emission direction, an angle-resolved, further light beam scanning in the scanning direction and angularly offset from the first light beam, at a second transmission instant following the first emission instant, allocating a second propagation time between the second transmission instant and a second receiving instant of a second reflection of the second light beam to the emission direction, and evaluating hits using the propagation times allocated to the emission direction.

  • Publication number: 20200079178
    Abstract: A sensor unit including a housing having cooling fins, and a cooling attachment which is mounted on the cooling fins and has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, so that a fluid is able to flow along the cooling fins, the placement of the cooling fins and the cooling attachment between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet allowing a predefined temperature gradient to be adjusted on the housing.
