Leddar One Manual

Leddar™One Sensing Module 17
Figure 9: Raw Detections Dialog Box
An object crossing the beam of the sensor is detected and its distance is
measured. A measurement contains distance, amplitude, a flags bit field and
the segment of the detection. The latter applies to multiple-segment modules
and is fixed for the Leddar™One. The quantity of light reflected back to the
sensor by the object generates the amplitude. The stronger the reflection, the
higher the amplitude.
