A Near Range Sensing Device Using Active Laser Diodes

능동레이저 근거리 감지센서

This paper describes an active laser sensing device using laser diodes and optic devices. It is able to detect near targets existed in $360^{\circ}$ directions simultaneously with effectiveness and reliability. This sensing device consists of four laser transmitters and four receivers. Only four transmitter/receiver channels of this near range sensing device are capable of $360^{\circ}$ coverage. The usefulness of this sensing device is confirmed through some experiments for the mock-up targets.
