LIDAR Prototyping Module and Sample Project

github Repo

At a Glance

I developed a set of plug-and-play LIDAR prototyping modules using both 1D time-of-flight sensors and 2D scanning LIDARs. The project includes building standalone demo boards, designing a lightweight custom C library for consistent data acquisition and motor control, and showcasing the capabilities through an interactive sample application. Together, these tools provide a flexible foundation for rapid experimentation, robotics prototyping, and sensor-driven product development.

1 D Lidar Module

Electrical Prototype

A simple prototype with a pair of 1-D time of flight sensors and a 16x2 LCD display was built using an Arduino Nano Every to test different sensor capabilities

Power Management System

arduino code

A Li-po battery is used through a charging module and a step up boost converter to power the entire set-up at 5V
