Low-Reflectivity LiDAR Targets: Testing Dark-Object Detection at 3% and 5%
A lidar’s range is quoted at 10% reflectivity, but tires and dark paint reflect less than that. This guide explains how 3% and 5% low-reflectivity targets are used to test dark-object detection, how much range to expect compared with the 10% rating, why a 3% target is harder to build than a 10% one, how large the panel needs to be, how to mount it, and what to specify when ordering.
