obscuring of the host system for the ranging window will impact the performance

and resolution of RPLIDAR A3M1. If you need cover the RPLIDAR A3M1 with

translucent materials or have other special needs, please contact SLAMTEC about

the feasibility.

dimensions.

Coordinate System Definition of Scanning Data

The RPLIDAR A3M1 adopts coordinate system of the left hand. The dead ahead

of the sensors is the x axis of the coordinate system; the origin is the rotating

center of the range scanner core. The rotation angle increases as rotating

clockwise. The detailed definition is shown in the following figure:
