Исследование методов измерения расстояния в сканирующих дальномерах

Abstract

Recently, the market for scanning rangefinders, in other words, LIDARS, has begun to develop rapidly due to the new course for unmanned vehicles and the need for high-precision positioning of objects in construction, geodesy, military Affairs, navigation, etc. The leading manufacturers of such scanning devices are currently Velodyne, Ouster and Luminar. Each company has its own unique approach to creating LIDAR, which has both pros and cons. LIDAR itself is a scanning device designed to receive and process information about remote objects using active optical systems that use the phenomena of light absorption and scattering in optically transparent media. In other words, a LIDAR is a device that uses a laser emitter to detect an object, after which the beam from the object is reflected and hits the photodetector, which, in turn, generates a signal and transmits it to the time interval meter. The output is a two-or three-dimensional image of the scanned object in the form of dots, depending on the type of LIDAR. The more of them, the clearer the picture we have, their number directly depends on the number of lasers and the processing speed of the system. This work is devoted to a comparative analysis of methods for constructing LIDAR systems. The analysis is carried out in order to identify the most accurate method of measuring the distance to an object under various conditions, and a new self-oscillating principle of distance measurement is proposed, which allows you to bring the measurement accuracy to a new level.
