Alternatively, the calibration data can be found in the included db.xml file found on the CD included with the HDL-32E. The calibration data for
vertCorrection is the vertical correction angle for each laser, as viewed from the back of the unit and stated in degrees. Positive values have
the laser pointing up an
d neg
ative values have the laser pointing down.
The calibration table, once assembled, will contain 64 instances of the calibration values to interpret the packet data to calculate each point’s
position in 3D space. Use only the first 32 instances.
3. Parse the packets for rotation, distance and intensity data. Each HDL-32E packet has a 1206 byte payload consisting of 12, 100
byte records followed by 6 bytes of GPS time stamp data. The zero degree position is 90 degrees to the right of the interface cable when
looking at the bottom.
Each 100 byte record contains first a start identifier, then a two byte rotational value, followed by 32 3-byte combinations that report on
each laser fired. Two bytes report distance to the nearest .2 cm, and the remaining byte reports intensity on a scale of 0 - 255.
There are 12 100 by
te records. For more on packet construction, see Appendix B.
4. Apply the calibration factors to the data. Each of the HDL-32E’s lasers is fixed with respect to vertical angle. For each data point issued
by the sensor, vertical correction factors must be applied to determine the point’s location in 3D space referred to by the return.
Note: The minimum return distance for the HDL-32E is approximately 1 meter. Ignore returns closer than this.
Note: There is a file on the CD called “DSR Source Example” that shows the calculations using the above correction factors. This is the code
used in DSR to determine 3D locations of HDL-32E data poin
ts.
You may also want to store the data. If so, it may be useful to timestamp the data so it can be referenced and coordinated with other
sensor data later. The HDL-32E has the capability to synchronize its data with GPS precision time.
Note: There are no user service or maintenance procedures for the Velodyne HDL-32E. Velodyne does offer a preventative maintenance
service for a fee. For service or maintenance, please contact Velodyne at +1 (408) 465-2800, or log on to our website at
