is adjustDistortion very important for localization?

Hi, thanks for your great job!

I have a question, is the adjustDistortion very important for an outdoor robot locolization? My robot currently has no imu and I wander what is the influence or improvement for this function. It woule be better if some experimental comparison data could be provided.

Thanks for your attention and I am always looking forward to your response.

Point cloud distortion correction is effective in cases of rapid rotation or when moving at high speed, such as in a car, and improves the accuracy of locazation estimation. Even without imu, there are many cases of localization estimation without any problem in relation to outdoor robot localization. If locazation estimation does not work, it is a good idea to have an IMU on board.

I have no comparative data that I can publish.

I have responded to the Issue and will close this issue once I have done so. Please raise another issue if there is progress in the experiment.
