Multiple Garmin Lidar Lite v3 - will the light interfere?

Sensors Distance

I’m considering a robotic application where multiple Garmin Lidar Lite v3 units all point forward and some may converge.

Will the light transmitted by one be picked up by another causing erroneous readings?

Would I need to sequence them so they each ran only one at a time?

Or do they send a pseudo-random light burst which they can filter for thus eliminating interference from other units?

Thanks!

There is the possibility that there could be interference. I would suggest sequencing the units to ensure reliability of the system just in case.
