Raspberry Pi Real-Time LiDAR in Python

Описание

The TF-Luna is a Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) module that is capable of measuring objects 20cm - 8m away, depending on the ambient light conditions and surface reflectivity of the object(s) being measured. A vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) is at the center of the TF-Luna, which is categorized as a Class 1 laser, making it very safe for nearly all applications [read about laser classification here]. The TF-Luna has a selectable sample rate from 1Hz - 250Hz, making it ideal for more rapid distance detection scenarios. In this tutorial, the TF-Luna is wired to a Raspberry Pi 4 computer via the mini UART serial port and powered using the 5V pin. Python will be used to configure and test the LiDAR module, with specific examples and use cases. LiDAR modules have been used in automotive driving systems, drone and quadcopter navigation, 2D-3D object scanning, and other applications in long-range and rapid distance detection.
