Abstract
A LIDAR system for detecting objects within an observation area. The LIDAR system includes an illumination unit for illuminating the observation area using multiple light radiations, each having a different wavelength, multiple separate spatial areas of the observation area, which are presently detected by a detection area of the LIDAR system, being temporally consecutively illuminated in each case with another of the light radiations; and a detection unit for detecting the light radiations reflected by objects, including at least one detection array, which is individually assigned to the particular detection area and is made of up of a detector for detecting the light radiations from the spatial areas presently detected by the detection area, and a holographic imaging optics for focusing the respective light radiations onto the detector.
