Time-of-flight 3D imaging is an invaluable remote sensing tool, but raster speeds are currently limited by pulsed-laser scanning rates. By adapting techniques from ultrafast time-stretch imaging, a ...
A new system represents the first time that the capabilities of conventional beam-scanning lidar systems have been combined with those of a newer 3D approach known as flash lidar. The nonmechanical 3D ...
Accurate, photorealistic, and operationally actionable 3D campus mapping is a key enabler for smart educational environments, which refers to digitally enabled campuses that integrate spatial data to ...
Researchers have developed a compact and lightweight single-photon airborne lidar system that can acquire high-resolution 3D images with a low-power laser. This advance could make single-photon lidar ...
Sensor fusion combines multiple sensing modalities to improve environmental perception, obstacle avoidance, and safety in autonomous systems. AI-enabled vision and 3D depth sensing are revolutionizing ...
Johnson’s Reef on the northwest shore of St. John Island in the U.S. Virgin Islands forms colorful peaks in this lidar image recorded by NASA’s Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) in ...
