LiDAR Scaner V2 Prototype:
The original V1 used the LiDAR_LD06 Modual and a Pi Pico W. The V2 is now using a VL53L5CX ToF sensor which uses an 8x8 array of measurements. The V2 is suposed to have 64X resolution and only take ~2-3 minutes instead of the V1s ~24 minutes.
In the second image the left is the V1 and the right is the V2 Prototype.
Fixed RLE Bugs where some data would be missing and some duplicate data would be made.
Image decompressing has been added to the esp32 and some error handling has been added to the packet system on both the server and client side. I broke the display I was going to use for this project (the voltage reg blew (somehow…)). But that is fixed now i think and should be good fro tommow. The bugs with the Arduino IDE have been fixed.
Here is some C++ Arduino RLE Code. (I have no idea if the code works yet so that will be tested tommow.)
Troubles with Arduino IDE. will get the problems fixed.
I don’t even have 749 lines…
Spent hours converting an image from 24-Bit to 8-Bit and compressing it with RLE (Run Length Encoding). And the image size went from 216KB to roughly 20KB. It’s a MASSIVE improvement. Roughly a 90% file size decrease! (Less quality tho… But it’s smaller)
Screen shots can be taken and and sent to an esp32. The esp32 doesnt understand it yet tho.
Got c++ arduino code compiled and running on the esp32-c3. (That too 3 and a half hourrrrssssss…)
Basic design of the head up display
