LIDAR/LADAR has become widespread in recent years, and uses pulse lasers to make time of flight measurements in order to build up a digital model of a scene. MBDA is undertaking investigations into the use of extreme LIDAR as a missile seeker technology. This project centres on the emerging need for optical devices engineered to allow high-speed LIDAR measurement in environments with high levels of vibration, temperature fluctuations and limited SWaP (size, weight and power) whilst maintaining long range and high-resolution capabilities. As a research engineer you will undertake work looking into novel (solid state) beam steering techniques, high power pulse lasers, acousto-optics, fast detection, data processing and 3D scene reconstruction models. The work will provide a balance between experimental laboratory work, programming, and theoretical analysis. You will work looking into materials testing and how we can push the state of the art of optical technology in the relevant areas, as well as creating new methodologies for ensuring best use of the data provided by LIDAR systems.

LIDAR/LADAR近年来已经变得广泛，并且使用脉冲激光来进行飞行时间测量，以便建立场景的数字模型。MBDA正在对极端激光雷达作为导弹导引头技术的使用进行调查。该项目的核心是对光学设备的新兴需求，这些设备旨在允许在具有高振动，温度波动和有限SWaP（尺寸，重量和功率）的环境中进行高速LIDAR测量，同时保持长距离和高分辨率的能力。作为一名研究工程师，您将研究新型（固态）光束控制技术，高功率脉冲激光器，声光，快速检测，数据处理和3D场景重建模型。这项工作将提供实验室工作，编程和理论分析之间的平衡。您将研究材料测试以及我们如何在相关领域推动光学技术的发展，并创建新的方法来确保最佳利用LIDAR系统提供的数据。
