Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/074093
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A laser sensor (1) of a vehicle sensing system of the present invention emits extending towards the circumferential direction of the central axis (O) a laser beam oriented outwards in a radial direction of a central axis (O). A reflecting plate (2) reflects one portion of the laser beam emitted from the laser sensor (1) so that the laser beam irradiates a first straight line which is a straight line corresponding to an edge behind the travelling direction of a vehicle within the communication range of an antenna (4), and a second straight line which is a straight line corresponding to an edge in front of the travelling direction of the vehicle within the communication range of the antenna (4).
