ouster-lidar/ouster-sdk

Cross-platform C++ and Python SDK for Ouster LiDAR sensors. Includes tools for visualization, data recording/replay, and sensor configuration

What it solves

It provides a standardized way for developers to connect to, configure, and extract data from Ouster Lidar sensors, removing the need to write low-level hardware communication code from scratch.

How it works

The SDK offers a cross-platform toolkit in C++ and Python. It includes a core library for sensor connection and configuration, specialized libraries for reading pcap files and storing sensor data (OSF), and a set of perception and mapping algorithms to process the raw data.

Who it’s for

Engineers and developers building robotics, autonomous systems, or mapping applications that use Ouster Lidar sensors.

Highlights

  • Cross-platform support for C++ and Python.
  • Integrated point cloud visualizer for data verification.
  • Shared perception and mapping algorithms.
  • Dedicated tools for handling pcap and OSF data formats.
