Abstract
A multipulse LIDAR system, including: a transmitting device for generating a transmission laser beam from a temporal sequence of single laser pulses; a receiving device with a detection surface, including a subdetector system made up of multiple subdetectors, for receiving the transmission laser beam that is reflected/scattered on objects in an observation area, the receiving device imaging a sampling point on the detection surface in the form of a pixel; a scanning device generating a scanning movement for successive sampling of the observation area along multiple sampling points situated in succession, the scanning movement to image a pixel on the detection surface, in each case shifted along the subdetector system; and a control device for determining distance information of the sampling points based on propagation times of the particular single laser pulses, the control device grouping subdetectors to form a macropixel individually associated with the particular pixel, for shared evaluation.
