Obstacle detection is one of the basic tasks of a robot movement in an unknown environment. The use of a LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) sensor allows one to obtain a point cloud in the vicinity of the sensor. After processing this data, obstacles can be found and recorded on a map. For this task, I present a pipeline capable of detecting obstacles even on a computationally limited device. The pipeline was also tested on a real robot and qualitatively evaluated on a dataset, which was collected in Brno University of Technology lab. Time consumption was recorded and compared with 3D object detectors.
