Understanding Lambertian Reflectance: The Science Behind Diffuse Reflectance Standards
Last Updated: January 2025 | Reading Time: 12 minutes Introduction When you shine a flashlight at a mirror, the reflected beam bounces back at a precise angle—miss that angle by a degree, and you see nothing. Point the same flashlight at a white wall, and it illuminates the entire room regardless of where you stand. […]
Diffuse Reflectance Standards: The Complete Guide to LiDAR Calibration Targets (2025)

Last Updated: January 2025 | Reading Time: 18 minutes 1. Introduction Autonomous vehicles navigate highways at 120 km/h, relying on LiDAR sensors to detect objects 200 meters ahead. Industrial robots manipulate components with sub-millimeter precision using optical ranging systems. What makes these technologies reliable? The answer lies in a critical but often overlooked calibration tool: […]
