AURELION Lidar Model
Realistic simulation of lidar sensors
The optional ‘AURELION Lidar’ model allows AURELION, the new dSPACE solution for sensor-realistic simulation, to realistically simulate a lidar sensor and the corresponding sensor environment.
- Output of a point cloud or raw data
- Support for scanning and flash-based sensors
- Realistic motion distortion effects with configurable time offsets for each ray
Application Areas
The lidar sensor model lets AURELION perform a physics-based real-time calculation of lidar sensor data to accurately simulate real-world effects. Input your lidar data into your processing chain as raw data or in point cloud format.
- Allowing for the physically correct simulation of point cloud generation while taking into account environment and sensor effects
- Predefined bidirectional reflectance distribution functions using real-world measurements
- Detection of multiple reflections per ray
- Motion distortion effect
- Support for dynamic scanning patterns
- Nonlinear calculation of reflectivity to model sensor saturation
- Support for efficient calculation of multiple sensors
- Noise simulation
- Real-time postprocessing interface with sensor environment model (ray tracer)
- Customizable output for each detection point
- Off-the-shelf integration of multiple Velodyne sensors
- C++/Cuda postprocessing API with direct GPU data access for performant point cloud processing in real-time
- Integration of custom sensor models
