Optical Assembly For Laser Radar

View page
US Patent:
20130099957, Apr 25, 2013
Filed:
Oct 25, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/281397
Inventors:
Eric Peter Goodwin - Tucson AZ, US
Daniel Gene Smith - Tucson AZ, US
Brian L. Stamper - Tucson AZ, US
Alexander Cooper - Belmont CA, US
Alec Robertson - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
Nikon Corporation - Tokyo
International Classification:
G01S 13/00
G02B 26/10
US Classification:
342 54, 3592121
Abstract:
A compact optical assembly for a laser radar system is provided, that is configured to move as a unit with a laser radar system as the laser radar system is pointed at a target and eliminates the need for a large scanning (pointing) mirror that is moveable relative to other parts of the laser radar. The optical assembly comprises a light source, a lens, a scanning reflector and a fixed reflector that are oriented relative to each other such that: (i) a beam from the light source is reflected by the scanning reflector to the fixed reflector; (ii) reflected light from the fixed reflector is reflected again by the scanning reflector and directed along a line of sight through the lens; and (iii) the scanning reflector is moveable relative to the source, the lens and the fixed reflector, to adjust the focus of the beam along the line of sight.

US Patent:
20130241762, Sep 19, 2013
Filed:
Mar 15, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/840686
Inventors:
- Chiyoda-ku, JP
Alexander Cooper - Belmont CA, US
Eric Peter Goodwin - Tucson AZ, US
Yuichi Takigawa - Kawasaki, JP
Alec Robertson - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
Nikon Corporation - Chiyoda-ku
International Classification:
G02B 26/10
G01S 13/86
G01B 11/24
G01C 3/08
US Classification:
342 54, 356 401, 35613904, 3591971, 3592051, 3592091, 3592011, 356601, 3592121, 3592012, 356445
Abstract:
A light beam is scanned, for use in laser radar and other uses, by an optical system of which an example includes a beam-shaping optical system that includes a first movable optical element and a second movable optical element. The first optical element forms and directs an optical beam along a nominal propagation axis from the beam-shaping optical system to a target, and the second optical element includes a respective actuator by which the second optical element is movable relative to the first optical element. A controller is coupled at least to the actuator of the second optical element and is configured to induce motion, by the actuator, of the second optical element to move the optical beam, as incident on the target, relative to the nominal propagation axis.

Stereo Vision Camera For Laser Radar

View page
US Patent:
20130342657, Dec 26, 2013
Filed:
Jun 11, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/915546
Inventors:
- Tokyo, JP
Alec Robertson - Palo Alto CA, US
International Classification:
H04N 13/02
US Classification:
348 47
Abstract:
Stereoscopic imaging systems are coupled to laser radar systems to permit selection of an intended scan area. Such imaging systems can also provide target depth data that can be used in conjunction with laser radar scan data. In some examples, stereoscopic images are presented to an inspector for operation assisted pointing of a laser radar axis or for computer-aided assessment of target conformance to design.

Abstract:
An optical assembly for a system for inspecting or measuring of an object is provided that is configured to move as a unit with a system, as the system is pointed at a target, and eliminates the need for a large scanning (pointing) mirror that is moveable relative to other parts of the system. The optical assembly comprises catadioptric optics configured to fold the optical path of the pointing beam and measurement beam that are being directed through the outlet of the system, to compress the size of the optical assembly.
