Title: Combined IR laser rangefinder and visible light imaging system - has rangefinder transmitter incorporating visible light optical path to imaging sensor
Inventor: SHIRAKAWA HIROYUKI
IPC: G01S17/86
Filed: 1991-12-19
Abstract: An infrared laser diode (2) is modulated by pulses from an impulse generator (9) to produce pulses of light which pass through a dichromatic mirror (101) and a lens (3) towards the rangefinder target.
