Generic C++ library for SICK laser scanner. Currently we support Windows and Ubuntu 18.04LTS for x86 architectures with this software. Within the demo the gathered data is stored at regular intervals as CSV data and as an image file in JPEG format. The image file shows the scan data in the top view.
More often, people ask how to feed the collected data from the lidar into their own application.
For this one can use different of the interprocess communication:
For example, you can use C#, Python, or C++ (e.g., with QT) to integrate the driver into your own GUI.
You can collect the data in the generic driver and send it, for example, via a local loop as a UDP data stream to the target application. Alternatively, you can use shared memory or other means of inter-process communication.
On the receiver side of this data stream, you can then build the GUI as you wish.
