"Putting a New Spin on
summary
A spinning LiDAR unit built around 64 fixed aligned lasers and dedicated detectors produces a 1.33 million points per second point cloud with 120 m range and adjustable refresh (5–15 Hz), time‑of‑flight distances accurate to about an inch. It runs on vehicles for autonomy (used on DARPA Grand Challenge/Urban Challenge cars), succeeds as a roadside mapping rig when turned sideways for 3D mapping (one user multiplies throughput ~6×), and captures bridges, signs and film VFX reliably in one pass at traffic speed.
