SOPASair is used to setup and configure SICK LiDAR Localization. The following quickstart gives a brief overview about setup and configuration. See the operation manuals published on https://supportportal.sick.com/products/localization/lidar-localization/lidar-loc/ for details and further information.
Run the following steps to setup configure your LiDAR with SIM1000FXA:
- Install the LiDAR-LOC software package to use SOPASair.
- Use Windows and Chrome-browser
- Log in with user Service and default password servicelevel
- Reload a map
- Move and turn your sensor to match the pointcloud (red dots) in the given map (black lines)
Use the first and second step in sick_localization_recording.md as an example.
Note: Use of Chrome-browser under Windows is highly recommended for LiDAR-LOC configuration with SOPASair. After the initial setup under Windows, SIM1000FXA is ready to be used on ROS/Linux.
