Abstract
A system and method for generating a focused three-dimensional (3D) point cloud is disclosed. A respective 3D point cloud is generated based on returns of a respective sequence of energy pulses that is emitted towards one or more regions-of-interest (ROIs) within a field-of-view (FOV) during a respective scan of the FOV, the returns including one or more secondary returns from one or more points within the FOV. During an additional scan of the FOV, subsequent to the respective scan, an additional sequence of energy pulses is emitted to generate a focused 3D point cloud that includes additional information regarding one or more selected points of the points associated with the secondary returns relative to the respective 3D point cloud.
