A method for perception and map construction of the unknown environmental information is described in this paper by analyzing and processing the data measured by laser range finder (LRF). The structure of the laser range finder, the structure of its returned measurement data, its working principle, and communication protocol are presented. The physical meaning of the data are studied and illustrated as well as its representation methods. The corresponding algorithm routine and the GUI interface program are introduced. Experiments are conducted to verify the range finding accuracy of the sensor and the data visualization method is also introduced. Results indicate that the proposed method is sufficiently valid and can satisfy the desired requirements.

Registration of the coordinates of lightning by their optical radiation has already been implemented on geostationary spacecraft in the wavelength range of 777.4 nm. However, the algorithms for processing the registered signals, as well as the volumes of information flows, have not yet been sufficiently studied. The choice of the sensor for the global registration of optical radiation of lightning on board a low-orbit spacecraft is substantiated. The prospects of using photodiodes in the difference-ranging method for determining coordinates are shown.The characteristics of lightning detection using matrices and LEDs have been studied. The prospects of using photodiodes in the differential-range-finding method for determining coordinates are shown. It is shown that the registration of optical lightning radiation on board the spacecraft by photodiodes provides the characteristics of detection and false alarms of a higher quality compared with the use of CCD matrices.
