Abstract
The present application generally relates communications and hazard avoidance within a monitored driving environment. More specifically, the application teaches a system for improved target object detection in a vehicle equipped with a laser detection and ranging LIDAR system by determining a plurality of ranges in response to a plurality of light pulse reflections and determining a false target indication by exploiting the expected continuity of surfaces in the environment.
