Abstract

A system is described. The system includes: a support; a first emitter coupled to the support, facing radially outwardly, and configured to emit a continuous-wave (CW) beam; and a second emitter coupled to the support, facing radially outwardly, and configured to emit a pulsed beam. The system may determine reflectivity using the first emitter and may determine a range using the second emitter.
