The system includes a microprocessor that is operationally coupled to the detector(s) for processing signal data, a memory accessible by the microprocessor for storing target characteristics (e.g., unique signals), and a software module accessible by the microprocessor for enabling system training and detection operations. In operation, the laser source emits into an environment at least two laser signals, one from each emission aperture. The detector detects the laser signals after the signals pass through the environment, which is occupied by a target, and the microprocessor determines target characteristics based on the matching of laser signals received by the detector(s) and characteristics stored in memory.

Abstract: Multiple laser optical sensing systems and methods for detecting target characteristics are disclosed. The present invention detects the presence of an object in a monitored area using an laser-based object detection system and may selectively cause a controlled response when an object is detected. At least two laser signals may be emitted into a monitored area using a vertical cavity surface emitting laser structure. At least one detector receives any laser signals not blocked by an object. The system determines the presence or absence of an object in the environment using a microprocessor and determines the objects characteristics by comparing received laser signals associated with it to object characteristics stored in a memory. The system may selectively causing a controlled response in accordance with the determination of object characteristics and/or correlating response criteria.
