what's RotationsPerSecond meaning?

[chongjeelee]

in the settings.json file, the lidar setting parameter RotationPerSecond mean one circle per second,or one degree per second?my opinion is one circle per second ,not one degree per second,right?

Yes, you would be correct. If you look https://github.com/microsoft/AirSim/blob/master/Unreal/Plugins/AirSim/Source/UnrealSensors/UnrealLidarSensor.cpp#L69 you see the RotationsPerSecond parameter get multiplied by 360 to get an angle distance, which would mean this parameter indicates number of full rotations/circles per second.
