LiMOX-A Point Cloud Lidar Model Toolbox Based on NVIDIA OptiX Ray Tracing Engine.

ABSTRACT: Virtual testing and validation are building blocks in the development of autonomous systems, in particular autonomous driving. Perception sensor models gained more attention to cover the entire tool chain of the sense-plan-act cycle, in a realistic test setup. In the literature or state-of-the-art software tools various kinds of lidar sensor models are available. We present a point cloud lidar sensor model, based on ray tracing, developed for a modular software architecture, which can be used stand-alone. The model is highly parametrizable and designed as a toolbox to simulate different kinds of lidar sensors. It is linked to an infrared material database to incorporate physical sensor effects introduced by the ray-surface interaction. The maximum detectable range depends on the material r
