Description
This user guide is intended to provide information on and describe the Leddar
TM
T16 Solid-State
LiDAR Traffic Sensor (hereinafter referred to as “Leddar T16”) for developers, integrators and/or
engineers.
The Leddar
TM
T16 Traffic Sensor is a 2D solid-state LiDAR that is specifically designed for traffic
management systems from city to highway applications. Packaged in a weatherproof housing, the
Leddar T16 offers cost efficient and highly accurate detection for various Intelligent Transportation
System (ITS) applications, such as electronic tolling, traffic monitoring and traffic law enforcement.
At the heart of the sensor resides the patented Leddar digital signal processing technology, which
provides superior detection, location and measurement capabilities for all types of traffic, including
vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists. The Leddar T16 measures both the distance and angular
positioning for each detected target. Its collected data enables functionalities, such as vehicle
profiling, speed measurement, and traffic data collection.
The Leddar T16’s flash illumination emitted by its LED sources covers the sensor’s complete field
of view. Capturing the return echoes of these diffused light pulses through 16 independent active
detection elements at a high acquisition rate, the Leddar T16 Traffic Sensor continuously provides
rapid and accurate detection and ranging in the entire beam without any moving mechanical parts.
The returned signals are digitized and processed through innovative algorithms, allowing the
reliable detection and measurement of a wide range of objects under the most challenging
environmental conditions, such as rain, snow and fog.
