Description:

This study presents a LiDAR system based on ferroelectric liquid crystal technology, integrated with advanced depth mapping and 3D reconstruction algorithms. The system utilizes fast liquid crystal gratings for light modulation, enabling a switchable field of view up to 72 degrees. The generated point cloud is processed through a depth mapping algorithm, which is based on a data pre-training method to convert pixel-based data into real-world distances.
