Note(s): We are conducting equipment development, experimental, and computational work in support of a prototype pulsed laser line scan (PLLS) imaging system. Use of a pulsed rather than CW laser creates the potential for gating the return to reduce backscatter and increase signal-to-noise ratio, and for determining the range to each pixel to assemble a 3-D representation of the scene. The pulsed laser in combination with novel beam scanning and detection optics are being tested at a large purpose-built imaging test tank facility at the Florida Atlantic University/Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute campus.
