Abstract
Aspects and implementations of the present disclosure relate to augmenting point cloud data with artificial return points. An example method includes: receiving point cloud data comprising a plurality of return points, each return point being representative of a reflecting region that reflects a beam emitted by a sensing system, and generating a plurality of artificial return points based on presence or absence of return points along radial paths of beams emitted from the sensing system.
