I need your help.

I hope my reply can help u

  1. As far as I can remember, Horizon doesn't need a complex config file
  2. If you are using ROS2, the static library of SDK1 needs to be changed to a dynamic library
    Workaround: Delete or rename liblivox_sdk_static.a under /usr/local/lib (for example, liblivox_sdk_static.a.ak) and then run colcon build
    The ros2 driver will automatically compile the dynamic library and pass the compilation.
  3. Your host needs to be in the same static network segment as the LiDAR
