The Laser Radar Beam travels 186,282 miles per second and that is 1 foot per billionth of a second. You can see it is important to keep the beam on one spot on the target. Cosine effect applies to Lidar in the same way it applies to Radar. In bad weather, Lidar can be used through the window in the Obstructed Mode.
