Overview

Solid state beam steering LCM

Solid state beam steering LCM
Solid-state 3D LiDAR developed with Lumotive.
Digital scanning of line light laser VCSEL Laser with liquid crystal deflection (LCM) without using any mechanical parts.
Using LCM, horizontal line light is scanned vertically and received line by line, which reduces multipath interference and stabilizes distance measurement compared to TOF cameras.
It provides new value that could not be realized with conventional mechanical scanning technology.
*LCM is a unique technology patented by Lumotive.

Characteristics of solid state scanning using LCM

Characteristics of solid state scanning using LCM
In mechanical scanning, the detection range constantly changes with respect to the time axis, that is, a fixed range is continuously scanned.
On the other hand, in solid-state scanning using LCM, the detection range changes depending on the software settings. The detection range (viewing angle) and resolution can be dynamically scanned, and the resolution, detection range, and frame rate can be flexibly and randomly scanned as well.

Multiple fields of view (FoV) can be set

Multiple fields of view (FoV) can be set
Multiple fields of view (FoV) can be scanned simultaneously.
It is also possible to scan only specific place or object at the same time.

Application

Application
It can be applied to AMR, AGV, 3D obstacle detection and road surface condition detection for robots.

※1 : Detection accuracy decreases when the angle increases, as the received light intensity is reduced. 
※2 : Distance accuracy and repeatability are evaluated under the following conditions. 
Distance Accuracy : Average of 25 locations, each based on the average of 100 measurements per pixel in 5×5 center area.  
Repeatability : Average of 25 locations, each based on the standard deviation of 100 measurements per pixel in 5×5 center area.
