Abstract :
A resonant biaxial comb-actuated 7mm-MEMS scanning mirror with tripod-suspension is developed to provide omnidirectional scanning in an automotive time-of-flight LIDAR sensor application. Wafer level vacuum packaging technology is applied to enable circular scanning at 550Hz at large tilt angle.
