  • Patent number: 12379474
    Abstract: This application provides a parameter configuration method, device, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. In this method, the receiving units in the LiDAR receiving array are grouped according to a preset rule. Then, based on the detection requirements, the measurement range corresponding to each group of receiving units is set. Based on the measurement range of each group of receiving units, the storage space for each group of receiving units is set. The storage space is used to store the measurement data of each group of receiving units. Thus, the method reduces the acquisition of measurement data by some receiving units in unnecessary measurement ranges, decreases the volume of measurement data, and saves storage space.
