I did some research on which LiDARs PX4 supports natively. There doesn’t seem to be much on this matter with exception of a rangefinder LIDAR-Lite. Furthermore, this sensor is a single-point LiDAR rather than 3D one. From this I would conclude PX4 has very little to no support for 3D LiDARs with a 360° scan capability.
My use-case is involvement of a 3D LiDAR for advanced obstacle detection that would be a part of drone’s autonomous obstacle detection and avoidance.
If anyone has experience as such or knows if something as such is supported natively by PX4 itself, I would appreciate any information I can get.
Cheers!
