Tabs
There are two tabs:
•
The
“Background
config” tab, used to configure the background of the lidar.
This tab shows
the “raw” range (the true range measured by the lidar)
. The limit must be fixed to reject objects that are farther
away than this limit.
•
The
“Hybrid
config” tab, used to configure the limits of the bike lane (in speed and range).
This tab shows the range (top) and the speed (bottom) of the detected objects. The range here is taken perpendicularly to the
bike lane (that is, taking into account the horizontal installation angle of 45 °).
