lidar (<exploring and investigating techniques>, <processes and techniques by specific type>, Processes and Techniques (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: System for detecting the presence of objects or ascertaining their position or motion; works on the principle of radar, but uses laser radiation instead of microwaves. A lidar device emits intense pulses of light generated by lasers. |
