Abstract
Provided are embodiments for a laser projection device configured to perform trajectory optimization. The device includes a power source configured to supply power to a power amplifier; a laser projector configured to emit a laser beam towards a surface of an object; a trajectory control module configured to calculate one or more parameters for a projection trajectory of the laser beam; a beam steering unit configured to control a direction of the laser beam; and wherein the power amplifier is operably coupled to the beam steering unit, wherein the output of the power amplifier is based at least in part on the calculated one or more parameters. Also provided are embodiments for a method of operating a laser projection device configured to perform trajectory optimization.
