The amount of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) in middle-class cars are steadily increasing. Next generation ADAS will undertake control in full automated vehicles. Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) will be one of the key enablers for autonomous and highly automated vehicles. The 1D Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) Micro-Scanning LiDAR is able to detect obstacles in a predefined Field-of-View (FoV). Future ADAS applications will require to dynamically change FoVs as fast as possible (e.g., quickly switching between long-range narrow FoV and short-range wide FoV). In this paper we introduce a novel system architecture that enables fast angle adaptions of a 1D MEMS Micro-Scanning LiDAR System. This system architecture was implemented in an FPGA prototype to show its feasibility and to evaluate its performance.
