9.7 Mounting angle of the device
The device is capable of compensating mounting angles and to convert the 3D data into the desired
orientation.
For example, it is possible to transform the pixels of the road level irrespectively of the pitch angle of the
device, so that the pixels are parallel to the X axis. For the transformation, the device needs information
about its orientation in relation to the world coordinate system.
Al in all, three angles can be set. The angles are indicated as follows:
● (1): angle of pitch
● (2): angle of rotation
● (3): angle of roll

The figure shows the angles in relation to the orientation of the sensor.
Please note which sensor orientation is set when entering the angles
(→ „9.4 Position of the device“).
The angles can be set in two ways:
● normal mode
● expert mode
