Abstract:
A laser radar device includes a laser diode and a photodiode. An optical isolator is disposed so as to tilt with respect to the optical axis of a laser beam by a predetermined angle, transmits a laser beam, and reflects reflected light toward the photodiode. A reflecting mirror is rotatably disposed around a center axis extending along the optical axis of the transmitted laser beam. A rotatable deflector, rotated by a motor, deflects a laser beam by the reflecting mirror toward the external space, and reflects reflected light from an object toward the optical isolator. When the side where the laser diode is disposed in the center axis direction is defined as the first side and the side opposite to the first side is defined as the second side, the motor is disposed at a position closer to the first side than the reflecting mirror.
