SICK LiDAR Simulation models

Simulating LiDARs offers a number of advantages:

Virtual integration & testing
Sensors can be integrated into digital twins and tested in the early development phase - without physical hardware.

Realistic simulation
The models contain realistic properties such as working area and range, which enables precise simulations. You can also choose between different sensor profiles (angular resolution and scanning frequency).

Increased efficiency
Development cycles are generally shortened as validations and adjustments can be carried out virtually - ideal for complex automation projects.

Collaboration & scalability
Teams can work together on projects worldwide and integrate sensor solutions into digital factories or vehicles in a scalable manner.

All models are based on the technical data sheets from SICK and available for Omniverse:

You can find the model also under >Downloads > Software> “Simulation model...” on sick.com (e.g.PICS150-01000 Pro-2 6 I/O - picoScan100 | SICK) Next to sick.com the models are directly available via the built-in sensor library in NVIDIA Omniverse.
