World’s Fastest Time-of-Flight Camera

Time-of-flight 3D imaging is the key technology in autonomous cars, robotics, and remote sensing. Building on more than 20 years of research on photonic time stretch data acquisition, our laboratory recently demonstrated the world’s fastest time of flight 3D camera. The Time Stretch Lidar scans orders of magnitude faster than today’s commercial line-scanning pulsed-LiDAR systems. Here is the link to our paper and on nature news featuring our work.
