Abstract 

Hardware and software co‐design for embedded systems is evolving at a rapid pace.  In this paper 

embedded hardware options are reviewed as candidates for use in low Size Weight and Power LIDAR 

systems, specifically 3D LIDAR.  A research project is presented to complete this paper, which 

demonstrates state of the art embedded hardware that provide a suitable solution to the challenges 

faced in the applications discussed.
