Page 29: Suggestions
FJD Trion P1 LiDAR Scanner User Manual 4 Suggestions Environments When scanning the surroundings, P1 constructs maps and saves the point cloud data in real time. Without the need for a GNSS device, P1 can be widely used for indoor, outdoor, and underground surveying scenarios such as underground parking lots and tunnels.
Page 30 FJD Trion P1 LiDAR Scanner User Manual Loop closure Loop closure Loop closure Loop closure 2. Loop closure during scanning The point cloud data errors accumulate as you walk. The errors decrease with the increase of circular loop closures. Therefore, it is recommended to close the loop as often as possible to minimize the errors.
Page 31: Transitioning Between Environments
FJD Trion P1 LiDAR Scanner User Manual 4.3 Transitioning Between Environments Take extra care when transitioning between environments, such as transitioning between rooms and indoor-outdoor transitioning, and when making a U-turn or turn. 1. Transitioning between rooms Open all doors before starting the scanning. Do not scan doors that are being opened. If P1 is not held properly, there are not enough features in front, or you walk too fast, P1 cannot capture enough features in the new room, delivering poor scanning quality.
Page 32: Holding Instructions
FJD Trion P1 LiDAR Scanner User Manual especially when in a corridor, to ensure that there is a period when P1 can view features on both sides of the turn. 4.4 Holding Instructions The horizontal and vertical FOV of the P1 LiDAR are 360° and 59° respectively as shown below.
Page 33: Walking Speed
FJD Trion P1 LiDAR Scanner User Manual 4.5 Walking Speed You are recommended to walk at a constant speed (1 m/s) in common environments, and reduce the speed to 0.5 m/s or lower when passing through narrow spaces, such as corridors, tunnels, and stair corners, so that P1 can effectively and fully scan the spaces to ensure the output accuracy.
Page 34 FJD Trion P1 LiDAR Scanner User Manual 2. Scan separately: If there is such a corridor in the area to be scanned, scan the corridor separately. 3. Add features manually: For a corridor with smooth walls on both sides and without obvious features, add features such as chairs manually.
