3D LiDAR Simulink Simulation

I am trying to simulate a LiDAR 3D beam propagation using simulink, I would like to show the area that the beam scans in order to optimize the LiDAR sensor placement.

Hi Daniel,

You can use the “simulation 3D Lidar” block to get an interface for the lidar sensor. The block returns a point cloud data which is an array of positive real-valued [x,y,z] points. In addition, you can output the location and orientation of the sensor in the world coordinate system of the scene. Please refer to the following documentation to understand more about the block - https://www.mathworks.com/help/driving/ref/simulation3dlidar.html
