Chinese LiDAR System Enables Facial Recognition from Space Distance
A Chinese LiDAR system can recognize facial details from over 60 miles away, tested successfully at Qinghai Lake. Unlike traditional microwave systems, its optical wavelength allows for higher resolution images. While it excels in distance, effectively monitoring military satellites, it requires perfect weather for optimal operation, unlike the Heriot-Watt superconducting LiDAR, which functions in fog…
