Free Space Optical Sensing: Photonic Technologies for Free Space Optical Sensors. Advanced topics

Free space optical sensors, such as LiDARs, are becoming key technology components in a variety of applications. For example, LiDARs are used in smartphone to enable a secure and reliable autentication.
Industrial 3D scanning is often used for precision manufacturing or in the field artistic heritage conservation, while the automotive industry exploits LiDARs for a variety of applications, such as collision avoidance or as a key technology for autonomous driving vehicles...

This series of lectures is designed to start from the basics and provide an in dept understanding of free space optical sensors and their applications. The week will be focused on advanced topics, such as signal processing, photonic integration oriented to LiDAR, spectroscopy.
