System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Interpreting already-read lidar PointCloud tensors: channel meanings, units, valid point ranges, coordinate-frame implications, flags, IDs, normals, velocity, and visualization values. Use reading-sensor-pointclouds when the user needs to map or fetch the tensors.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Identify lidar channels (Counts, Coordinates, Intensity, TimeOffsetNs, Flags, Velocity, etc.) and the settings that define their coordinate frame, units, and validity behavior.
  • Read the matching interpretation source snippet before explaining channel behavior or visualization choices.
  • Use Counts[0] to bound the per-point tensors and Flags for per-entry validity; interpret channels without adding boilerplate unless requested.

Quick Start

Review the provided lidar PointCloud snippet, then map Counts, Coordinates, and Flags to determine valid points and coordinate interpretation.
