Best Practice for VMZ
VMZ / 2 passes: vertical 2D line
mode @ 90°/270° frame angle
VMZ / 1 pass in 3D radar mode
VMZ / 3 passes: 2 vertical and
1 radar mode
3D view: Comparison of scan pattern, line density as well as capability of object detection (road surface, house walls, traffic signs)
dependent on different scan modes and the number of passes. Images are colored by reflectance.
