Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a laser imaging system, in particular to a large-field-of-view single-photon laser three-dimensional imaging optical system. Background Art

[0002] Laser 3D imaging technology uses actively emitted laser pulses to illuminate the target, and uses the echo energy reflected by the target to image the target. Unlike two-dimensional images such as visible light and infrared, the target image obtained by three-dimensional laser imaging contains the distance information of the target, which can accurately locate the target. Therefore, laser 3D imaging technology is suitable for occasions such as three-dimensional construction of digital cities and natural disaster rescue. At the same time, due to the continuous innovation of drone technology, the demand for three-dimensional imaging carried by drones has gradually increased. Its three-dimensional imaging has the characteristics of miniaturization, high sensitivity, long distance and high frame rate. At present, in order to achieve a large field of view, laser 3D imaging technology mostly scans and images the target area through two-dimensional scanning, resulting in a low imaging frame rate. Therefore, it is very necessary to develop a miniaturized and highly sensitive laser 3D imaging system that can be applied to drones to perform large field of view and high frame rate 3D imaging of distant targets.
