US Patent 11073597 Three-dimensional point cloud generated by high-resolution flash LIDAR

A method of operating a vehicle image system supported by a vehicle is provided. The method includes receiving data from one or more sensors supported by the vehicle. The one or more sensors capture sensor data of objects in the surrounding environment of the vehicle. The method also includes receiving a storage indication from a user input device. The storage indication is indicative of storing the data from the one or more sensors in the non-transitory memory. The method also includes storing the data after receiving the storage indication and transmitting a command to one or more remote devices causing the one or more remote devices to generate a two-dimensional image or a three-dimensional object based on the received data.
