We measure the modal dispersion occurring in a single multimode fibre and account for this using a digital micromirror device to form a raster scanning spot in the far field of the distal facet of the fibre. We perform this with a q-switched 700 ps pulsed laser at a 532 nm wavelength. The raster scanning allows us to spatially interrogate the reflectivity of a scene while the time of flight of the pulse gives distance information allowing for the generation of a three-dimensional image.
