This article from Outsight will explain the main reasons for using a lidar software pre-processor in your AV system architecture.
Pre-processing software allows you to use 3D LiDAR data in real- time by employing a comprehensive set of features and a seamless plug-and-play integration.
You can start building your solution from day one.
As the leader in LiDAR pre-processing, Outsight pushes the limits of this concept even further: in the video below (see link at end of post) we show you how to get from first plugging your LiDAR to Object Tracking and Zones of Interest definition in 90 seconds, without installing any framework, library or software in your computer.
In a nutshell, a 3D Lidar Software pre-processor allows you to focus on what’s important – insight instead of raw data.
Pure LiDAR software players such as Outsight have many years of experience implementing highly efficient professional LiDAR software in a range of environments for the most demanding applications.
Employing pre-processing software allows you to benefit from the work of a team of experts at a fraction of the cost of in-house or outsourced engineering.
Especially when accounting not only for the development time but also the maintenance cost.
While making a prototype, demo or R&D-level software can be done relatively quick, building a professional solution is much harder, longer and expensive.
Using a LiDAR processing software that is already compatible with most if not all of the available LiDARs allows you to use the most appropriate sensor(s) for your application and environment.
