Low-Cost 3D Laser Scanning Technology: Comparison
View Latest Version
Please note this is a comparison between Version 2 by Vivi Li and Version 1 by Chang Yuan.

By moving a commercial 2D LiDAR, 3D maps of the environment can be built, based on the data of a 2D LiDAR and its movements. Compared to a commercial 3D LiDAR, a moving 2D LiDAR is more economical. A series of problems need to be solved in order for a moving 2D LiDAR to perform better, among them, improving accuracy and real-time performance. In order to solve these problems, estimating the movements of a 2D LiDAR, and identifying and removing moving objects in the environment, are issues that should be studied.

  • 3D laser scanning
  • low-cost
  • 2D LiDAR
  • a moving 2D LiDAR
