Abstract
A system and method provide a bi-directional data communication link within a LIDAR assembly that has a stationary portion attached to an autonomous vehicle and a second portion rotatably connected to the stationary portion. The second portion may include one or more emitting/receiving devices (e.g., lasers) for detecting objects surrounding the autonomous vehicle. A first printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) having a first optical transceiver may be located within the stationary portion. A second PCBA having a second optical transceiver may be located within the second portion. A hollow shaft may be positioned so as to extend between the stationary portion and the second portion.
