It leverages measurements of photon arrival times from a single-photon LiDAR and an intensity image from a conventional high-resolution camera. Using a tailored fusion algorithm, we jointly processed the raw measurements from both sensors and output a high-resolution absolute depth map. We scaled up the resolution by a factor of 10, achieving 1300 × 2611 pixels and extending ~4.7 times the unambiguous range. These results demonstrated the superior capability of long-range high-resolution 3D imaging without range ambiguity.展开更多
