Lidar Mapping Ros. Roslaunch ydlidar_ros G1launch Note. Cartographer is configured to use only Lidar data for map building and position estimation.

Lidar SLAM without ROS for less than 200 08042018 08052018 zlite Until recently if you wanted to do SLAM Simultaneous Location and Mapping with LIDAR without a huge amount of coding work you really only had one choice. The map is a 2D grid based SLAM map created by the hector_slam library for ROS. The picture above A map built using the R2D LiDAR sensor shows just such a map built using the SLAM process.
RPLIDAR is a low cost 2D LIDAR solution developed by RoboPeak Team SlamTec company.
