How to choose the Gaussian noise of a Sensor?
I am using Velodyne VLP16 Lidar at my simulations. I found the plugin below from here;
<plugin name="gazebo_ros_laser_controller" filename="libgazebo_ros_velodyne_laser.so"> <topicName>${ros_topic}</topicName> <frameName>${name}_frame</frameName> <min_range>0.45</min_range> <max_range>130.0</max_range> <gaussianNoise>0.008</gaussianNoise> </plugin>
And I wonder why Gaussian Noise is set to 0.008 and how can it be measured?
This is the sensor specifications;
