We develop an unprecedented 3D pulsed chaos lidar system for potential intelligent machinery applications. Benefited from the random nature of chaos, conventional CW lidars already possess excellent anti-jamming and anti-interference capabilities have no range ambiguity. In our system, we further employ self-homodyning time gating to generate a homodyned boost energy-utilization efficiency. Compared original show that improves detection SNR by more than 20 dB.
