Is reflectivity used in the input? #15

Hello zhulf0804.

Is the reflectance of the LiDAR point cloud unused in train? This is because it seemed that the data after the 3 arrays (x, y, z) of points were not handled. Will the same result be obtained if the point cloud data .bin with the reflectance set to 0 is given during the test? @voxelization_cuda.cu

hard_voxelize_gpu function
NDim = 3

@voxel_module.py

voxel_num = hard_voxelize(points, voxels, coors,
num_points_per_voxel, voxel_size,
coors_range, max_points, max_voxels, 3,
  deterministic)

Hi @cadwallader113,

The reflectance is used.

NDim = 3 represents that it processes the 3-dimensional data, but each data item can be related to its data attribute, such as reflectance. More details please see here.

Best.
