Want to see a 3D Raspberry Pi LiDAR scan of someone’s backyard? Of course you do.
Have you checked out LiDAR scanners yet? If you haven’t, they’re really handy for taking in data from an environment and reproducing it as a 3D model. If that sounds like something you’d like to try, but you’re unsure where to start, allow me to introduce you to this excellent Raspberry Pi project, which guides you through the steps of creating your own LiDAR scanner.
This DIY LiDAR scanner uses a Raspberry Pi at its core
As spotted by Hackaday, this excellent project is called the PiLiDAR, and you can check out its GitHub page for the source code and instructions on how to build it.
