1. A method comprising:

  • scanning a first mirror at a sinusoidal frequency to define a periodic scan pattern along a first axis within a scan area;

    scanning a second mirror to define another scan pattern along a second axis within the scan area, wherein the scanning of the first and second mirrors defines the scan area;

    splitting and inverting the scan area via an optical field splitter/inverter that is positioned optically downstream from the first and second mirrors; and

    transmitting a plurality of light pulses to the split and inverted scan area via the scanning first and second mirrors and the optical field splitter/inverter.
