Hello all, I’ve been working on a project for the last few days. It’s a very simple LiDAR scanner turret. It scans from right to left, steps up, and then scans right to left again, repeating this for a set amount of scans. I actually completed the project, but my tiny Arduino-driven screen I was us…
