IPC: G01S17/10

Abstract: Es wird ein optoelektronischer Sensor, beispielsweise ein Laserscanner, zur Erfassung und Abstandsbestimmung von Objekten in einem Überwachungsbereich angegeben, der einen Lichtsender zum wiederholten Aussenden von Lichtpulsen, einen Lichtempfänger zum Erzeugen eines Empfangssignals aus einem von Objekten in dem Überwachungsbereich remittierten Lichtpuls sowie eine Steuer- und Auswertungseinheit aufweist, die dafür ausgebildet ist, anhand des Empfangssignals eine Lichtlaufzeit eines ausgesandten und wieder empfangenen Lichtpulses und daraus einen Abstandswert zu bestimmen. Dabei ist die Steuer- und Auswertungseinheit weiterhin dafür ausgebildet, durch das Empfangen eines Lichtpulses das Aussenden eines weiteren Lichtpulses auszulösen. Bei einem solchen ereignisgesteuerten Messablauf löst der jeweils zuletzt empfangene remittierte Lichtpuls 20a den nachfolgenden Lichtpuls 16a aus. Start und Stopp sind Signale der Steuer- und Auswertungseinheit zur Ablaufsteuerung der Messung. Mit dem Startsignal wird der Lichtsender angesteuert, um die ausgesandten Lichtpulse 16a zu erzeugen. Das Stoppsignal wird aus dem Empfangssignal gewonnen. Ein Empfangspuls im Stoppsignal löst direkt den nächsten Startpuls im Startsignal aus. Damit wird direkt und ereignisgesteuert auf den Empfangspuls hin von Puls n auf Puls n+1 und damit die nächste Messung geschaltet. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform wird das A ussenden des nächsten Lichtpulses 16a mit einer von Messung zu Messung variierenden Verzögerung ausgelöst. Es überlagern sich folglich der erfindungsgemäße ereignisgesteuerte Messablauf und die herkömmliche pseudozufällige Verjitterung. Damit wird die Wahrscheinlichkeit deutlich verringert, dass ein Fremdstörer systematisch als Scheinobjekt bei einer gleichen Lichtlaufzeit wahrgenommen wird.
