Abstract
The invention relates to a transmission device () of an optical detection device () for monitoring at least one monitoring region () for objects () using electromagnetic transmission signals (). The invention also relates to a detection device (), to a vehicle (), and to a method for operating the optical detection device (). The transmission device () comprises at least one signal source (), by means of which electromagnetic transmission signals () can be generated, and at least one signal influencing device (), by means of which the electromagnetic transmission signals () can be influenced. The at least one signal influencing device () has at least two different optical diffuser regions () which are arranged adjacently to one another when viewed at least in a direction transverse to the optical axis () of the at least one signal source () and which have different scattering properties with respect to the electromagnetic transmission signals ().
