Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

The 84,000 simulated samples comprise six matched variants of 14,000 scenes, with corresponding foreground/background geometry and 7,000/7,000 train/test splits. They are not independent temporal recordings.

Sensor patterns are alternative configurations, not a simultaneously mounted rig. The composite Livox configuration has five Horizon units and one Tele-15; the flat interface can sum devices across alternatives.

Simulated measurements use scanned street backgrounds and CAD foregrounds. These assets do not establish an independently released physical measurement stream; origin remains Simulation. Frozen scan patterns and rendering assumptions limit real-world transfer.

Official files document binary XYZI clouds and KITTI-style object labels. Suggested semantic-label generation, platform trajectories, capture rates, raw calibration and new sensor patterns are not established release products.
