Abstract

Provided are an optical sensing system and an optical apparatus including the same. The optical sensing system may include a light output part configured to emit a laser beam to an object, and a sensing part configured to sense a laser beam emitted from the light output part and reflected from the object. The sensing part may include a photodetector and the active optical device located on an optical path between the photodetector and the object. The active optical device may actively control an orientation of a laser beam passing therethrough and may include a material layer having a refractive index which is changeable by application of an electrical signal.
