  1. LIDAR Technology: Overview and Applications LIDAR (LIghtDetectionAnd Ranging): Analogous to RADAR, but using a different part of the electromagnetic spectrum (390 nm - 700 nm). It uses the laser to illuminate a target and then analyzes the reflection. • Lidar Applications • Automotive • Mapping and Ranging Applications • Surveying and CivilEngineering • Terrestrial or aerial scanning • Lidar Requirements • Wide detectionrange • High accuracy • Temperature stability • Miniaturized • Multi-sensorcapability • Lowcost and lowpower University of Palermo Brussels, 4-5 February 2014

  2. SiliconPhotoMultipliers for LIDAR applications SiPM • Advantages of SiPM over PIN or APD • Higher Gain • Lower Cost • Lower Bias Voltage • Temperature stability • Wide dynamicrange • Ability to have multi-sensor or arrays for Imaging LIDAR University of Palermo Brussels, 4-5 February 2014
