This paper proposes a method for creating 3D occupancy grid maps using multi-layer 3D LIDAR and a swing mechanism termed Swing-LIDAR. The method using Swing-LIDAR can acquire 10 times more data at a stopping position than a method that does not use Swing-LIDAR. High-definition and accurate terrain information is obtained by a coordinate transformation of the acquired data compensated for by the measured orientation of the system. In this study, we develop a method to create 3D grid maps for autonomous robots using Swing-LIDAR. To validate the method, AR Skipper is run on the created maps that are used to obtain point cloud data without a swing mechanism, and 11 sets of each local map are combined. The experimental results exhibit the differences among the maps.
