Abstract
The system and mechanical design of a four-wavelength lidar system is described. The system is designed to be maximally adaptive to deployment scenario in terms of both size/weight/power and detection application. The wavelengths included in the system are 266 nm, 355 nm, 1064 nm, and 1574 nm – all generated from Nd:YAG based pump laser sources. The system is designed to have a useful range from 400 meters to 5,000 meters, depending on the wavelength and atmospheric conditions.
