Abstract
A LIDAR system is provided. The LIDAR system includes an emitter. The emitter includes a light source and one or more lenses positioned along a transmit path. The light source is configured to emit a primary laser beam through the one or more lenses in the transmit path to provide a transmit beam. The LIDAR system includes a receiver spaced apart from the emitter. The receiver includes one or more lenses positioned along a receive path such that the one or more lenses receive a reflected laser beam. The LIDAR system includes an optical element positioned along the transmit path. The optical element is configured to direct a portion of the primary laser beam in a direction towards the receive path as a secondary laser beam.
