NAME

       velodyne-view - Demo for grabbing and visualizing data from a Velodyne sensor

SYNOPSIS

       velodyne-view  [-v] [-n] [-m <`VLP16`,`HDL32`,`HDL64`,>] [-c
        <calib.xml>] [--ip-filter <192.168.1.201>] [--out-pcap
        <out>] [-i <in_dataset.pcap>] [-o <out.rawlog>] [--]
        [--version] [-h]

USAGE EXAMPLES

       Run with all default parameters and show live VLP16 LIDAR scans

       velodyne-view

       Parses a PCAP file with a LIDAR dump (default params)

       velodyne-view --in-pcap DATASET.pcap

       Parses a PCAP file with a LIDAR dump (custom calibration file)

       velodyne-view --in-pcap DATASET.pcap --calib CALIB.xml

       Grab RawLog and PCAP log files from a live VLP16 LIDAR

       velodyne-view --out-pcap out --out-rawlog out.rawlog

       Grab RawLog and PCAP log files from a live LIDAR with calibration file

       velodyne-view --out-pcap out --out-rawlog out.rawlog --calib CALIB.xml

DESCRIPTION

       velodyne-view is a simple application that continuously grabs scans from a Velodyne sensor
       and displays the 3D point cloud live.

       Arguments:

          -v,  --verbose
            Verbose debug output

          -n,  --nologo
            Skip the logo at startup

          -m <`VLP16`,`HDL32`,`HDL64`,>,  --model <`VLP16`,`HDL32`,`HDL64`,>
            If no calibration file is specified, set the model to load default
            values

          -c <calib.xml>,  --calib <calib.xml>
            Optionally, select the calibration XML file for the LIDAR

          --ip-filter <192.168.1.201>
            Only listen to a LIDAR emitting commands from a given IP

          --out-pcap <out>
            If set, grab all packets to a PCAP log file. Set name prefix only.

          -i <in_dataset.pcap>,  --in-pcap <in_dataset.pcap>
            Instead of listening to a live sensor, read data from a PCAP file

          -o <out.rawlog>,  --out-rawlog <out.rawlog>
            If set, grab dataset in rawlog format

          --,  --ignore_rest
            Ignores the rest of the labeled arguments following this flag.

          --version
            Displays version information and exits.

          -h,  --help
            Displays usage information and exits.
