It may be reflected from a positioned object and detected by the third laser detecting unit 5623, and accordingly, the third laser output unit 5633 included in the main array 5611 according to one embodiment may detect the third laser. It may be optically coupled to the unit 5623, but is not limited to this.
- the second object is located in an area where the main laser irradiation range 5711 or the auxiliary laser irradiation range 5712 and the second laser detection range 5722 overlap according to an embodiment, the second object The laser reflected from the object may be detected by the second laser detecting unit through receiving optics, but is not limited to this.
- the third object when a third object is located in an area where the main laser irradiation range 5711 or the auxiliary laser irradiation range 5712 and the third laser detection range 5723 overlap according to an embodiment, the third object The laser reflected from the object may be detected by the third laser detecting unit through receiving optics, but is not limited to this.
- the minimum measurable distance may be determined for each laser detecting unit included in the LIDAR device 5700.
- the first object if the first object is located closer than the first distance 5731, the first object deviates from the main laser irradiation range 5711 and the auxiliary laser irradiation range 5712 of the LiDAR device 5700. Therefore, even if the first object is located within the first laser detection range 5721, the first object may not be detected by the LIDAR device 5700 because there is no laser reflected from the first object.
- the second object is located closer than the second distance 5732, the second object is located outside the main laser irradiation range 5711 and the auxiliary laser irradiation range 5712 of the LiDAR device 5700. Therefore, even if the second object is located within the second laser detection range 5722, the second object may not be detected by the LIDAR device 5700 because there is no laser reflected from the second object.
- the distance at which the auxiliary laser irradiation range 5712 of the LiDAR device 5700 and the third laser detection range 5723 begin to overlap may be the third distance 5733
- the third laser detecting unit may detect the laser reflected from a third object located at a distance greater than the third distance 5733.
- the first to third distances 5731 to 5733 described in FIG. 24 may be smaller than the first to third distances 5431 to 5433 described in FIG. 20, and the LIDAR device described in FIG. 24 It can be seen that the short-range measurement performance of the 5700 is improved compared to the LIDAR device 5400 described in FIG. 20.
- the method according to the embodiment may be implemented in the form of program instructions that can be executed through various computer means and recorded on a computer-readable medium.
- the computer-readable medium may include program instructions, data files, data structures, etc., singly or in combination.
- Program instructions recorded on the medium may be specially designed and configured for the embodiment or may be known and available to those skilled in the art of computer software.
- Examples of computer-readable recording media include magnetic media such as hard disks, floppy disks, and magnetic tapes, optical media such as CD-ROMs and DVDs, and magnetic media such as floptical disks.
- program instructions include machine language code, such as that produced by a compiler, as well as high-level language code that can be executed by a computer using an interpreter, etc.
- the hardware devices described above may be configured to operate as one or more software modules to perform the operations of the embodiments, and vice versa.

Abstract
Un dispositif LiDAR selon la présente invention comprend : un module d'émission comprenant une optique d'émission et un réseau de sortie laser qui comprend une pluralité d'unités de sortie laser, le réseau de sortie laser comprenant un réseau principal et un réseau auxiliaire ; et un module de réception comprenant une optique de réception et un réseau de détection de laser comprenant une pluralité d'unités de détection de laser, le réseau principal et le réseau auxiliaire étant agencés de telle sorte que la distance entre l'axe optique de l'optique d'émission et le réseau principal est plus courte que la distance entre l'axe optique de l'optique d'émission et le réseau auxiliaire et, lorsqu'un laser émis par le réseau de sortie laser est réfléchi par un objet positionné à une première distance, au moins une partie du réseau auxiliaire se couple optiquement au réseau de détection de laser, tandis qu'au moins une partie du réseau principal se découple optiquement du réseau de détection de laser.
