Key Parameters And Design Considerations For Solid-State LiDAR Lenses
Compared to traditional mechanical LiDAR, solid-state LiDAR lacks mechanical rotating parts, instead employing purely electronic or micro-electromechanical methods for beam scanning, with a focus on high integration, near-infrared transmittance, thermal stability, and resistance to environmental interference. Solid-state LiDAR is a key technology in the fields of autonomous driving and robotics; its lenses are critical system components, primarily responsible for collimating the emitted laser beam and focusing the reflected signals. 1. What is a solid-state LiDAR lens? As a core optical component of solid-state LiDAR systems, the performance of the LiDAR lens directly determines the system's detection accuracy, range, resolution, and reliability; the lens must not only meet imaging requirements but also efficiently collect extremely weak laser return signals. Consequently, solid-state LiDAR systems impose unique requirements on lens design, placing greater emphasis on miniaturizat...
