Abstract

There are disclosed techniques for laser scanning control. A system includes control equipment to perform a coordinated scanning control by controlling: a mirror driver, to drive a mirror along desired mirror positions through a motion mirror control signal; and a laser driver, to generate laser light pulses to be impinged onto the mirror at the desired mirror positions through a pulse trigger control signal. The control equipment includes a motion estimator to provide estimated motion information based on feedback motion measurement(s), to generate the pulse trigger control signal by adapting a desired scheduling, for triggering the laser light pulses, to the estimated motion information.
