HDL32E: Intensity Data
• Intensity data output format the same as previously (8 bit, 0-255 values)
• value 0 – value 100 = 0 – 100% reflectivity from diffuse surface
a) value zero means 0% reflectivity, which means that 0% of light is reflected back to the sensor (black, absorbent surface)
b) value 100 means 100% reflectivity, which means that 100% of light is reflected (white, highly reflective surface) into many directions of which
a small angle is captured by the sensor
• Values higher than 100% reflectivity are possible, if the surface is not a diffuse surface but a highly
reflective surface like a retro-reflector
• Anything higher than 100% is defined as a partial reflection from a high reflector
• Value 101 – 255 = partial reflection from retro-reflector
c) value 101 means reflection is almost the same as white, reflective diffuse reflector (b) plus small amount of reflection from the retro-reflector
d) value 255 means ideal reflection of the retro-reflector (perfectly clean retro-reflector, no coverage)
