# LiDAR Analysis Overview

Within Grid Studio, there is a function that allows users to simulate different type of LiDAR sensors in a 3D enviornment.

The purpose of this is to help users understand the limitations of the LiDAR sensor from the different types that are available, to the relative distance between the sensor and the detection zone which will affect the detection resolution.

By using this tool, users can simulate the different LiDAR sensors available on the market, place them in the 3D space and understand how that affects their detection area.

It can also show how certain objects in the scene could potentially create a blind spot in the detection area.
