Similar arrangements using optical heterodyning are also used in laser Doppler sensors
for measuring the linear velocity of solids and for measuring vibrations of surfaces; the
latter sensor is usually called a laser Doppler vibrometer, also abbreviated LDV.[7]
[edit] Applications
In the decades since the LDV was first introduced, there has been a wide variety of laser
Doppler sensors developed and applied.
One disadvantage has been that LDV sensors are range-dependent; they have to be
calibrated minutely and the distances where they measure has to precisely defined. This
distance restriction has recently been at least partially overcome with a new sensor that is
range independent.[9]
