CLOSED-LOOP MOTOR CONTROL USING UNIDIRECTIONAL DATA FEEDBACK

Abstract: systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for closed-loop control of a motor in a lidar system over a wireless power interface using data feedback over a unidirectional data communications interface. an example method may include receiving, by a controller on a first portion in a lidar system, from a second portion including a second motor, and over a unidirectional data communication interface, data associated with the second motor, wherein the second portion is configured to rotate relative to the first portion. an example method may also include providing, over a wireless power transfer interface, to the second portion, and based on the data, a power signal, wherein the power signal is used to provide power to the second motor.
