The accurate measurement of an object’s motion requires knowledge both its position and velocity. commonly used photonic Doppler velocimetry broadband laser ranging techniques are ideal for conducting simultaneous dynamic experiments. Instead employing two distinct systems, we developed a hybrid system that can simultaneously measure velocity distance in This reduces cost complexity, particularly multi-channel tests, by using only one probe, photodetector, oscilloscope channel. By precisely synchronizing the data time, assist with interpreting target’s orientation.
