Sending unit for LIDAR devices with near-field beams and far-field beams

摘要

Disclosed is a transmission unit, in particular for a LIDAR device, having at least one radiation source for generating electromagnetic rays, wherein the rays generated by the radiation source can be split into two radiation components, with a first radiation component of the radiation generated by the at least one radiation source passing through one of the A lens array downstream of the radiation source can be focused into far-field rays for scanning a far field of a scanning area and a second beam component can be used as near-field rays for scanning a near-field of a scanning area. A LIDAR device is also disclosed.
