We are all familiar with radio frequency and its application in detecting and tracking objects. Sonar technology is also similar to sound waves used to sense objects on the ocean floor. Similarly, in LiDAR systems, light waves, especially laser beams, are used to detect objects. The laser beam here does not refer to visible multi-color light. The beam is in the infrared region, invisible to the normal human eye. Light strikes objects around it and reflects back from the light source. The time required for beam propagation is measured and analyzed accordingly.

In addition to LiDAR’s numerous applications in agriculture, automation, security systems, transportation, mapping, mining, retail, and more, real-time LiDAR applications include logistics and distribution channels. The logistics distribution sector is mainly attached to the manufacturing and retail industries, and it is very necessary to implement intelligence in this area, which is also an important part of the economy.
