How to modify LIDAR returns
Autoware 1.12.0: I am trying to intercept the raw lidar that comes out of the sensor and modify it. Which file in Autoware recieves the raw LIDAR data from the sensor?

@avdev Currently the majority of Autoware.ai assumes that the lidar being used is a Velodyne lidar. Since this is the case, it would be using the open-source Velodyne ROS driver. The driver reads the raw data as UDP packets from a network interface and translates them first into "scans," then into sensor_msgs/PointCloud2 messages. After that, you can easily modify the point cloud. If you want the data at a lower level, you'll either have to modify the Velodyne driver or use something like PCAP/WireShark to capture the raw network packets.
