Why is the vehicle's rotation information are unused? I can't find how to add the rotation information。

Hi @liukang1811 ,

I'm not sure what context you are referring to using the vehicle rotation, but I'm try provide some clarity. When providing rays to ohm, it is assumed that they are in a local mapping frame; i.e., that any vehicle transformation has already been applied. When using ohmpopX tools, the sample points and trajectory information are assumed to be in a global map frame. All in all, it's up to the user to ensure the data points are in the correct frame.

Hope this helps clean things up.
