Abstract: The embodiments described herein provide systems and methods that can improve performance in scanning laser devices. Specifically, the systems and methods emit emission control pulse sets that are used to detect when objects (e.g., persons) are within a relatively close safety range. Then, higher energy long-range pulse sets are conditionally emitted only when objects were not detected within the safety range with the emission control pulse sets. These emission control pulse sets are emitted variable timing and/or variable energy that is determined at least in part on whether previous emission control pulse sets detected an object with the safety range. The use of emission control pulse sets with variable timing and/or variable energy can provide for improved reliability of object detection in a safety range, while still meeting the energy limits needed for eye safety.
