Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G  F  H | IPC F  G  H

Claim 13:
14. A moving object, comprising:
a distance measuring device configured to calculate a time of flight between the moving object and a target object and measure a distance to the target object; and
a moving device configured to move the moving object based on the distance to the target object,
wherein the distance measuring device includes:
an optical transceiver configured to emit light to the target object by a start control signal, receive light reflected from the target object, and convert the received light into an electric signal; and
a distance measuring unit configured to convert the electric signal to generate a stop control signal, and calculate a time of flight based on a time difference between the start control signal and the stop control signal, and measure a distance,
the optical transceiver includes:
a first angle adjusting unit having a first reflection region and a second reflection region;
an optical transmitter configured to transmit light to the first reflection region of the first angle adjusting unit;
an optical receiver configured to receive light from the second reflection region of the first angle adjusting unit;
a first light blocking member configured to separate a movement path of the transmitted light and a movement path of the received light; and
a controller configured to transmit a signal controlling an operation of the first angle adjusting unit to the first angle adjusting unit, and
the first angle adjusting unit includes:
a reflector having the first reflection region and the second reflection region;
a first driving unit configured to transfer power to the reflector;
a first gear connected to the first driving unit; and
a second gear connected to the reflector and moving while being engaged with the first gear.
