This invention discloses a 3D scanning
lidar, a
lidar scanning method, and an unmanned forklift. The method establishes a
mathematical model of the relationship between rotational speed and the spatial
angular distribution of a
point cloud. It fixes the spindle rotational speed r1 and adjusts the high-speed rotational speed r2 to form a non-integer proportional motion, achieving non-repetitive scanning to generate a uniform
point cloud. Based on the model, it calculates the
point cloud uniformity index δS, generates a feature map, and selects the optimal rotational speed to support switching between uniform, progressive, or repetitive scanning
modes. Furthermore, through pre-calculated gyro effect compensation and bidirectional
laser arrangement, it forms a cross-shaped oblique grid, improving boundary recognition accuracy; adjusting the ratio of r1 to r2 controls the grid angle, achieving acute, right, or obtuse angle grids. This invention overcomes the problems of traditional
radar resolution being limited by the number of modules, slow coverage speed, and complex control. Through open-
loop control and dynamic adjustment, it reduces cost and
power consumption, improves point cloud density and task adaptability, and is applicable to fields such as autonomous driving and
robotics.
