Abstract

The invention relates to a lidar sensor device (1), comprising a first laser emitter (2a) configured to emit pulsed light of a first wavelength and at least one second laser emitter (2b, 2c) configured to emit pulsed light of at least one second wavelength different from the first, each in the direction of an object (O) located ahead of the laser emitters. The sensor device furthermore comprises a reception unit (3) comprising at least one photodetector (4), and a first bandpass filter (5a) and at least one second optical bandpass filter (5b, 5c), in particular narrowband optical bandpass filter, wherein the first and the at least one second optical bandpass filter are arranged between the object and the at least one photodetector, and wherein the first bandpass filter (5a) is designed to let through essentially light of the first wavelength and the at least one second bandpass filter (5b, 5c) is designed to let through essentially light of the at least one second wavelength. The laser emitters (2a, 2b, 2c) may be used to generate a coded signal pattern with which the sensor device (1) transmits light in the direction of the object in each measurement cycle. The echo signal, in the form of the coded signal pattern, reflected from the object and detected by the reception unit (3) may then be assigned unambiguously to the measurement cycle of the distance measurement and additionally has an improved signal-to-noise ratio. Coding may in this case take place by means of a time-division multiplexing method performed on the transmitted light pulses, a wavelength-division multiplexing method performed on the transmitted light pulses, or a combination of both methods. It is possible to suppress potential crosstalk or interference caused by signals from other sensor devices.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for transferring a component, more particularly an optoelectronic component, wherein at least one component is provided, which is fastened to a first carrier by means of a supporting holder, the component having a transfer region on a side facing away from the first carrier. A light exit region of a light-guiding lifting element is positioned facing the transfer region, and the lifting element produces a first laser light pulse. A transfer material between the light exit region and the transfer region is thereby melted, so that the light exit region is bonded to the transfer region by the melted transfer material. The component is lifted and is positioned over a depositing region. Then a second laser light pulse is produced, so that the transfer material is melted again, and the lifting element moves away from the transfer region before the transfer material solidifies, so that the component remains on the depositing region.
