LIDAR is an acronym for Light Detection and Ranging
- It is a type of Sensor
- LIDAR relies on accurate metrics.
- It is also called LADAR (Laser Detection and Ranging).
Description (Specifications)[edit]
LIDAR is a sensor system that bounces laser light off of a target and detects the ref1ection. The laser can scan a very small area and as such it is used to lock onto a target after some other search sensor has detected it.
- It is a tight beam active sensor.
