Data collection platform in Hong Kong and California
Hong Kong
The platform for data collection in Hong Kong is a Honda Fit as illustrated in the following figure. The platform is equipped with the following sensors:
-
1 3D LiDAR sensor (HDL 32E, Velodyne, 360 HFOV, +10~-30 VFOV, 80m range, 10Hz)
-
1 INS (Xsens Mti 10, 100 Hz, AHRS)
-
1 GNSS receiver (low-cost u-box M8T, GPS/BeiDou, 1Hz)
-
1 Fish-eye Camera, Grasshopper3 5.0 MP (GS3-U3-51S5C-C), fisheye lens Fujinon FE185C057HA-1, 185 HFOV, 185 V-FOV, 10 Hz.
-
1 NovAtel SPAN-CPT (high-grade RTK GNSS/INS integrated navigation system, 20 Hz, GPS/BeiDou/GLONASS)
The setup of the sensors is shown in the following figure. All the localization-related sensors are equipped in a compact sensor kit on the top of the vehicle.

California
The platform for data collection in California is a Toyota Prius as illustrated in the following Figure. Slightly different from platform 1, the following sensors are used in California:
-
1 3D LiDAR sensor (RS-LiDAR-32, Robosense, 360 HFOV, +15~-25 VFOV, 200m range, 10Hz)
-
1 INS (Xsens Mti 10, 100 Hz, AHRS)
-
1 GNSS receiver (Ublox M8T, GPS/GLONASS, 1Hz)
-
1 NovAtel FlexPak 6 GNSS (RTK GNSS, 10 Hz, GPS/GLONASS)
The locations of the sensors on the vehicle are shown in the following figure. All the localization-related sensors are equipped in a compact sensor kit. The RTK GNSS is employed to provide reference localization information.
