Maximizing Scanner Speed

$

Hello all,

I am working on a university project using laser scanners. Right now I have a set of SpaceLas 30KPPS galvos. I have been reading a lot on how the KPPS rating is misleading in terms of physical speed of the mirrors.

My application requires maximizing speed. Essentially I am irradiating a square area and want to scan over it as fast as possible. The scanning angle is not set in stone; ideally it would be as large as possible. Since the area is a simple rectangle, precision is not important. Do you have any ideas on what technology I should use? I have also read a little about LIDAR and MOEMs.

For smaller (1-10 degree) angles, is there a way to tune my current set of galvos to maximize speed? I don't have any experience in tuning these things.

Am i correct in assuming that for larger angles galvos are NOT the right tech?

I am interested in hearing about all ideas that are around $10K and less.

Thank you!
