Eiten,
I did some further test about the ground plane removal on our robot.
With the zero position of tilt laser calibrated, now I am able to see that
before ground removal, cloud points corresponding to the ground are located
roughly on the horizontal plane, except a few discrete points still left on
the ground plane after filtering.
Another strange issue is that if the "planar_refine" value set to "1" in
launch file, the ground removal filter will not only remove the ground, but
also a large part of points whose z value may be as high as 0.4 meter. I
traced back into the source file sac_inc_ground_removal_standalone.cpp and
found that it's due to the plane fitting module within subroutine
"computePointNormal". The calculation result from this module about the
fitted plane seems incorrect. But I can not tell exactly which step inside
is wrong since I extracted the code within it into a separate file and
calculate some sample points, and the result is matching with the that from
matlab.
Please see enclosed screenshots for details and your comments are welcome.
best regards
xiaojun
screeshot without planar refinement, the bottom edge of clouds is close to
the ground plane:
