LIDAR Module

[Paul Millhouse-Smith]

Good afternoon,

Just putting it out there, if anyone has access to a portable LIDAR module?

I am looking to experiment with recording outdoor environments ie. woodlands. and caves. 

Or if anyone has experimented with a LIDAR shield such as this one:

Thank you for your time, 

Paul

Hi Phil - I've been using a Garmin LIDAR-Lite V3HP, its got ~40 meter range. Well documented with its own Arduino library though its not a 360 device like the one you've linked to.

Hi Nic, 

Thank you for your advice. 

I will look into it, do you have any captures of it imaging capabilities?

Thanks, 

Paul

LIDAR by itself just sends back distance information, any image reconstruction will be done in software. I only use it to get distance information so havent any experience in creating an image from the data.

Here's a vid of the project I used it for, the LIDAR module is at the end of the funnel & is measuring the distance to my fist then the data is used to light up the appropriate LED ring & generate the appropriate frequency (sound on)
