6.3 Map building
6.3.1 Preparations
1) Make sure it a vacant area or with limited people within the area;
2) Clear up all the frequently movable objects in the area;

Regarding to those objects may reflect, transmit and absorb lights, under some conditions permissible, stick several
ordinary materials on the plane domain area where laser radar may reflect;
6.3.2 Frequently Disturbed Objects
Before starting mapping, you should figure out what kind of objects that may have an influence on the laser radar that
requires us to do several precautions as the case may be. Generally speaking, 70% of light reflective rate will be up to the
limit that radar data manual instructs. Attention should be focused that all the environment we are talking is inside the room
/indoor environment. Below are several interfered objects:
3) Low reflective objects, e.g. light absorbing wall in black, furniture, etc.;
4) Glasses;
5) Mirror, stainless steel that reflects the objects;
6) Other reflective objects.

Push robots to the
Starting Point
where you turn on the robot. In order to generate a high-quality map, make sure the
direction to which robot is facing towards a vertical straight wall (not a curve wall or closed loop area) among the area, no
obstacles surround the robot within 1m in case of not interrupt robot to get more valid points, shown as below Pic 4;
