LIvox Avia support

I'm really hoping that you will tell me that it is already supported and I just missed a setting, but if not it would be amazing if this was something that was coming out.

Hi @madhatdrones,

We only have integrated Livox sensors that are handled with the SDK2 of Livox so far, meaning HAP and Mid-360. For reference, Link to SDK1

Link to SDK2

We do not have any short term plan to integrate it, but if it is something you would be willing to support and that you are able to provide a pcap file from this sensor, this could be done via our support ticketting system ( 10h-20h should be sufficient) : https://www.kitware.eu/get-support/

Thanks,

Gatien

Gatien, I am interested with this as a possible path forward. I want to give you an idea of what my end goal is to make sure your software will work with my project. I am assembling a lidar unit that I plan on mounting to a DJI M300 drone. The main components I am using are a Livox Avia, an Advance Navigation Certus GNSS, and a Sony ILX-LR1. I am hoping to use a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 to run the software during flight. OpenMMS is the original concept that I am working off of; however, when I was purchasing my equipment I wasn't able to buy the same components their project used. I am comfortable using computers but have very limited coding background. This is where I hope your software can come into play. From what I can tell your software can handle both point cloud acquisition during flight and some post flight data processing. The Certus outputs a pps signal that I can use to sync the photos and point cloud data with the positioning data and both the certus and the sony camera have the ability to store data internally so I don't need to necessarily compile data on the fly.

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly and I hope we can do business together.
