Software Development Kit (SDK)
Besides using Livox Viewer 2 to check real-time point cloud data, users can also use the SDK to
apply the point cloud acquired from Livox LiDAR sensors to different scenarios.
SDK Communication Protocol
With the SDK Communication Protocol, users can learn how to customize the Livox LiDAR
sensors. The SDK Communication Protocol encompasses the following four types of data:
• Control Command Data
• Point Cloud Data
• IMU Data
• Log Data
All data is stored in little-endian format.
Visit http://www.livoxtech.com/sdk for more information about SDK communication protocol and
Livox SDK API reference.
Storage, Transportation, and Maintenance
Storage
The storage temperature range for the HAP (TX) LiDAR is from -40° to 95° C (-40° to 203° F).
Keep HAP (TX) LiDAR sensors in a dry and dust-free environment.
• Make sure the HAP (TX) LiDAR is not exposed to environments containing poisonous or
corrosive gases or materials.
• DO NOT drop the HAP (TX) LiDAR and be careful when placing in or taking out of storage.
• If a HAP (TX) LiDAR sensor is not to be used for more than three months, regularly check the
sensors and connectors for abnormalities.
Transportation
• Before transportation, place HAP (TX) LiDAR sensors in a suitable box and make sure it is
secure.
• Make sure to place foam inside the transportation box and that the box is clean and dry.
• DO NOT drop the HAP (TX) and be careful when carrying it.
Maintenance
In normal conditions, the only maintenance required for the HAP (TX) is to clean the optical
window of the LiDAR sensor. Dust and stains on the optical window can negatively affect the
performance of the LiDAR sensor.
