Volume estimation of an indoor space with LiDAR scanner

View document

Bibliographic Details
Summary:Three-dimensional scanning is a task of great importance for our modern society and has brought great advance when it comes to precision of inventory. These sensors measure and map the material surface continuously, allowing real-time inventory monitoring. As this process is very complex, most technologies are expensive, and even low-cost ones are a good investment option for the average user. Therefore, this work presents the simulation of a lowcost Time-of-Flight based 3D scanning system, that after a voxelization process, performs the volume estimation of an object filled indoor space. The system consists of a 2D LIDAR scanner that performs a 180º degrees sweep through a stepper motor.
