This open-source declination only supports VeloDyne's open-source interpreters: VLP-16, VLP-32, HDL-32, HDL64, Alpha Prime.
An Experimental branch with Hesai sensor support also exists.
Many of these LiDAR sensors sweep an array of lasers (often 8 to 128) 360°

- Spreadsheet inspector for LiDAR attributes (timestamp, azimuth, laser id, etc)
- Record to `.pcap` from sensor
- Export to CSV, PLY, PCD, LAS or VTK formats
- Record and export GPS and IMU data
- Visualize GPS data paths
- Grid and Ruler tools
- Show or hide lasers subsets
- Show multiple frames of data simultaneously and aggregate them
- Apply 3D transforms to pointclouds
- Run SLAM to estimate the trajectory of the LiDAR in the scene and build a 3D map of the environment
Many other features can be added using Plugins, some can be found on [this page](https://gitlab.kitware.com/LidarView/plugins). They enable for example to:
- run Deep Learning models for object detection on your point cloud (see [this repo](https://gitlab.kitware.com/LidarView/plugins/lidarviewdeeplearningplugins))
- read data from the PandaSet dataset (see [this repo](https://gitlab.kitware.com/LidarView/plugins/pandasetplugin))
- more features to come
