Lossless SIMD Compression of LiDAR Range and Attribute Scan Sequences
Jeff Ford,Jordan Ford,Jeff Ford,Jordan Ford
As LiDAR sensors have become ubiquitous, the need for an efficient LiDAR data compression algorithm has increased. Modern LiDARs produce gigabytes of scan data per hour (Fig. 1) and are often used in applications with limited compute, bandwidth, and storage resources. We present a fast, lossless compression algorithm for Li-DAR range and attribute scan sequences including multiple-return range, si...
