Where are the GPS values? #491

Closed laurent82 closed 1 year ago

laurent82 commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I am new to the SDK and Ouster products so I may have missed some information.

I synchronized the lidar and the GPS according to the guide and I have the "locked" values on 1 as well as the "last_read_message" values seem correct.

But that's just using the HTTP API. I can't find these values anywhere in the Python or C++ SDK. I thought there would be a field in the LidarScan class or possibly LidarPacket or ImuPacket. So I have no idea how to link the scans to the GPS values.

How should it be done? Thanks

Apologies. Thanks for opening the issue. That's correct - no GPS comes to the SDK from the UDP packet, and we don't currently support polling and matching the GPS to scans, so you'd have to handle it yourself.

I recommend contacting your sales representative to ask for this feature to be prioritized. I will keep this open, however.

@kairenw is that means , i must add GPS device to get the GPS data , as no GPS data coming from the Lidar device ...?

Hi @mos-ali that's correct. I'd encourage you to contact your FAE or ouster sensor support if you have questions about how to set it up.
