contents End-to-end autonomous driving solutions, which directly process multimodal sensory data and output fine-grained control commands, have gradually become a mainstream direction with the development of autonomous driving technology. However, current methods in this category rely on single-vehicle data collection for model training and optimization, which suffers from high acquisition and annotation costs, scarcity of valuable scenarios, and data silos. To address these challenges, we propose RS2AD-LiDAR, a novel framework for reconstructing and generating vehicle-mounted LiDAR data from roadside sensor observations. Since no public dataset currently provides highly overlapping perception coverage between roadside and vehicle-mounted LiDAR sensors, which is essential for studying roadside-to-vehicle data generation, we constructed a dedicated dataset named R2V-LiDAR which is used solely for evaluation in this work. Specifically, our method transforms roadside LiDAR point clouds into the vehicle-mounted LiDAR coordinate system, and synthesizes high-fidelity vehicle-mounted data via virtual LiDAR modeling and point cloud resampling techniques. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first approach to reconstruct vehicle-mounted LiDAR data from roadside sensor inputs. Extensive experimental comparisons demonstrate the semantic similarity between the generated data and real data. Furthermore, object detection experiments show that incorporating the generated data into real data for model training improves both Bird's Eye View (BEV) and 3D detection accuracy, thereby validating the effectiveness of the proposed method.
