Parallel Beam Laser RADAR: Benefits Over Scan Systems

Traditional scanning laser vibrometers capture one point at a time—slowing down measurements and missing critical vibration data. Parallel Beam Laser RADAR changes that. Using photonic integrated circuits to generate dozens of simultaneous laser channels, Ommatidia LiDAR’s Q1 and Q2 systems deliver faster, more accurate, and fully synchronized vibration and metrology measurements for aerospace, automotive, and industrial applications.

Non-Contact Vibrometry of Sand and Glass Bead Beds Using Q1/Q2 Laser RADAR

Ommatidia LiDAR’s Q1/Q2 Laser RADAR is bringing aerospace-grade optical vibrometry to geoscience. In a recent campaign, the system was deployed to analyze vibration propagation in sandbanks and glass bead beds—entirely without contact or surface instrumentation. By capturing high-resolution phase-resolved data from afar, researchers were able to reconstruct wave dynamics across fault-like structures, offering a powerful new tool for seismic studies, terrain diagnostics, and civil engineering applications.
