Email: <dev@livoxtech.com>

OverView

ROS packages for Livox 3D LiDARs. This driver provides the measurement data as PointCloud2 or Livox defined cloudpoint data.

Livox defined msg format is :

Header header             # ROS standard message header
uint64 timebase           # The time of first point
uint32 point_num          # Total number of pointclouds
uint8  lidar_id           # Lidar device id number
uint8[3]  rsvd            # Reserved use
CustomPoint[] points      # Pointcloud data

CustomPoint format:

uint32 offset_time      # offset time relative to the base time
float32 x               # X axis, unit:m
float32 y               # Y axis, unit:m
float32 z               # Z axis, unit:m
uint8 reflectivity      # reflectivity, 0~255
uint8 line              # laser number in lidar
