Abstract

A dynamically reconfigurable Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) system can generate improved ranging data one or more regions of three-dimensional (3D) images generated by the system. The images can be segmented, and global or local optical characteristics (e.g., power, illumination duration, bandwidth, framerate frequency) of the light can be modified to increase the 3D image quality for the segments of the image.
