Velodyne has developed and produced a High Definition Lidar (HDL) sensor designed to satisfy the demands for autonomous vehicle
navigation, stationary and mobile surveying, mapping, industrial use and other applications. The Velodyne HDL unit provides 360-
degree azimuth field of view and 26.5-degree elevation field of view, up to 15 Hz frame refresh rate, and a rich point cloud populated
at a rate of one million points per second. This White Paper first explores various technologies for 3-D lidar sensing, then discusses
the design principals and construction of the Velodyne HDL-64E lidar sensor.
