What is Lidar?<\/h2>\n

Lidar (light detection and ranging) uses eye-safe laser beams to \u201csee\u201d the world in 3D, providing machines and computers an accurate representation of the surveyed environment.<\/p>\n

1.<\/h2>\n

A typical lidar sensor emits pulsed light waves into the surrounding environment.<\/p>\n

These pulses bounce off surrounding objects and return to the sensor.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/visimind.home.pl\/autoinstalator\/wordpress2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Lidar-2.png” title_text=”Lidar-2″ _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_vertical=”-10px” box_shadow_blur=”20px” box_shadow_spread=”-10px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.15)” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”40px|10%||10%|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The sensor uses the time it took for each pulse to return to the sensor to calculate the distance it traveled.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/visimind.home.pl\/autoinstalator\/wordpress2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Lidar-3.png” title_text=”Lidar-3″ _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Repeating this process millions of times per second creates a precise, real-time 3D map of the environment. This 3D map is called a point cloud. An onboard computer can utilize the lidar point cloud for safe navigation.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_video_mp4=”https:\/\/visimind.home.pl\/autoinstalator\/wordpress2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/lidar_video.mp4″ max_width=”800px” module_alignment=”center” min_height=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” custom_padding=”0px|15px|0px|15px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font=”Montserrat|700||on|||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#000000″ header_font_size=”65px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin_tablet=”||0px||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”||0px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” header_font_size_tablet=”45px” header_font_size_phone=”25px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_line_height_tablet=”” header_line_height_phone=”1.1em” header_line_height_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n
