number of samples with RP Lidar A2 about breezyslam HOT 5 OPEN

Same here. The highest number of samples I can get reach before the map stops being built is 120, even on my Jetson TX1 which is surprising as I'd expect it to be able to handle stuff like this. What's more, the CPU never goes above ~50% while generating the map, so I'm not sure where the bottleneck could be. I can delve more into system information and setup when I get home in a few hours.

Yeah, I and others have had a some difficulty using these RP Lidar units with BreezySLAM, having to tune that min-samples parameter. I'm not sure whether the solution lies in re-writing the acquisition library or the core C in BreezySLAM. Given how fast BreezySLAM already runs on even inexpensive single-board computers like ODROID using other lidar units (like the Hokuyo URGs), my approach would be to try and speed up the RP Lidar acquisiton code.

Alright, that makes sense. I'll look into making my own acquisition library in something faster than Python. Thanks!

Hello,
Any further update on this issue ?
I am unable to get map bytes for my RPILIDAR A1, it just returns 0x7F data.
slam.getmap(mapbytes)

Using the C++ is much better and you get much more points! Haven't tested the slam yet but I would guess it is good (looking at the offline data and map generation)
