LidarRT

GPU LiDAR simulation for Unreal Engine 5 using hardware ray tracing.

LidarRT simulates LiDAR sensors on the GPU. Beams are traced with hardware ray tracing and scheduled through Unreal Engine’s Render Dependency Graph.

Point clouds are visualised with Niagara and can be handed to external sensor models. In the current setup they feed the FZD LiDAR model from the SET Level project through an OSMP/FMI interface.
