Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure provide a system for controlling laser pulses emitted by an optical sensing device. The system may include a laser emitter configured to emit a plurality of laser pulses, a power source configured to deliver electrical currents to the laser emitter, and a control circuit configured to deliver electrical currents from the power source to the laser emitter. The control circuit may include a first control path configured to deliver a first electrical current rising at a first rate from the power source to the laser emitter to emit a first laser pulse. The control circuit may also include a second control path configured to deliver a second electrical current rising at a second rate from the power source to the laser emitter to emit a second laser pulse following the first laser pulse. The second rate may be higher than the first rate.
