According to Panasonic, its new 3D LiDAR sensor measures the distance between the sensor and the target object using the round-trip travelling time of the pulsed laser beam that is projected onto the target, enabling it to accurately measure the direction of and distance to the target with a wide angle of view. It achieves this using proprietary multiple motor-driven mirrors and scanning technology.
