Abstract: A light detection and ranging (LIDAR) includes: a light-emitting unit, a light receiving unit and a control unit. In the light emitting unit, first light from a first light source, after being reflected by a first surface of a first mirror, reaches the scan unit. In the light emitting unit, second light from a second light source, after being reflected by a second mirror and transmitted through the first mirror via a second surface of the first mirror, reaches the scan unit, using an overlapping path with the first light. Light intensity of the second light transmitted through the first mirror is lower than that of the first light reflected by the first mirror. The control unit enables only the first light source, and in response to determining that measurements from the light receiving unit are saturated, automatically switches off the first light source and enable the second light source.
