Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR)
LiDAR stands for light detection and ranging. It is also known as laser scanning or 3-D scanning. LiDAR instruments are primarily made up of a laser, a scanner, and a GPS receiver. LiDAR can be used for the purposes of autonomous vehicles and face detection. The basic premise of LiDAR is that a laser is […]
TECs for Cooling Critical Components in Automotive LiDAR Sensors
LiDAR (light detection and ranging) is a laser-based 3-D sensing technology that creates high-resolution maps of various environments. It is increasingly utilized in a wide variety of applications, including machine vision for industrial robots, mapping and surveying, atmospheric measurement and even face recognition in mobile devices. Perhaps today’s most high-profile application for LiDAR is as […]
Addressing Reliability in LiDAR Systems with Thermoelectric Cooling
Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems use pulsed laser light to measure the distance between a source object and surrounding objects in its environment. This technology is very useful for autonomous vehicle applications, where it is used to create a virtual map of the area surrounding the vehicle. More advanced LiDAR systems can even measure […]
Cooling in LiDAR Applications
