SLDV III: the next generation of acousto-optical landmine detection

Abstract

A new generation of Scanning Laser Doppler Vibrometer (SLDV) has been realized; based on experience and results of a former proof-of-concept design and a number of field tests. This new device SLDV III comprises a number of technical improvements in the transmitter and receiver section as well as in the evaluation of the recorded vibration signals. The subsequent paper summarizes the main features of this instrument.
