LiDAR Trajectory Reconstruction

Technology Description Mobile LiDAR systems are used in a variety of applications such as mapping and autonomous vehicles. A fundamental part of mobile systems is deriving the trajectory of the LiDAR unit as it is moving. Many LiDAR systems do not capture this data requiring it to be reconstructed. This method for trajectory reconstruction offers the...
