SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REPOSITIONING A LIGHT DEFLECTOR

Abstract:

A LIDAR system may include at least one processor configured to control at least one light source for emitting a light flux. The at least one processor may also be configured to control a light deflector to deflect light from the at least one light source in order to scan a field of view. The at least one processor may further be configured to detect an object within the field of view based on first reflections from the field of view received by at least one sensor. The at least one processor may also be configured to determine a first position of the light deflector based on second reflections from the field of view received by a plurality of detector cells, and control a repositioning of the light deflector to a second position based on the first position of the light deflector and an intended illumination location.
