Abstract
An apparatus in accordance with the invention for the recording of distance images each having a plurality of distance image points comprises a plurality of transmitters arranged in an array respectively for the transmission of electromagnetic radiation into a recording region and at least one reception unit for the detection of radiation reflected from the recording region, an evaluation unit for determining distances of objects at which the transmitted radiation is reflected, with the distances each forming a distance image point, a deflection unit which repeatedly deflects the transmitted radiation within a scanning angle region into a scanning direction in order to consecutively generate a plurality of scanning patterns of distance image points per distance image, and a displacement unit that displaces consecutive scanning patterns against one another in a displacement direction by way of relative movements of optical elements, wherein each distance image comprises a plurality of scanning patterns of distance image points displaced against one another.
