Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/005058
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is an information acquiring apparatus which can detect, with a compact configuration, deterioration of a diffraction optical element. Also disclosed is an object detecting apparatus having the information acquiring apparatus mounted thereon. The information acquiring apparatus (1) is provided with a laser light source (111) which outputs laser light having a wavelength of approximately 830 nm, a polarization beam splitter (PBS) (113), a 1/4 wavelength plate (114), a DOE (116), and a PD (117). The DOE (116) irradiates a target region with laser light in predetermined dot patterns. The PD (117) receives a part of the laser beam diffracted and reflected by the DOE (116).
