Research abstract
In order to discern obstacles and wires, ground and air vehicles require ultra-miniature LADAR.Attollo Engineering and their partners propose a miniature non-motorized LADAR system capable of runway clearing, wire detection, and sense-and-avoid applications.They system is enabled by the use of short-pulse VCSELs developed by the principal researchers of Attollo.The system also utilizes innovative optics and electronics to form a small integrated unit compatible with small unmanned airborne systems.The LADAR system meets the specifications of the solicitation while maintaining a very small form factor.
