The In-House Translational R&D at the LiDAR lab of the TiH focusses on the integration of Acousto-Optic Modulators (AOMs) with LiDAR systems represents an innovative and promising approach to developing compact, affordable, and high-performance solutions. 

 

By leveraging the capabilities of AOMs, the project aims to address key challenges in precision and range resolution faced by conventional LiDAR technologies. Specifically, the objective is to achieve a range resolution exceeding 1 cm, enabled by utilizing a laser pulse width of 66.7 ps at a wavelength of 850 nm. This advancement would mark a significant improvement in the precision of laser-based measurements and applications.
