Hello,
I'm trying to interface Hokuyo URG-04LX Lidar to Arduino. But, I have not found any proper documentation on the internet. Since I'm a beginner in this field can please help me with this. First, I would like to know what all the necessary precautions to be taken and if I require any module to convert RS232 or USB to interface with Arduino? How to proceed further.
Thank you.

I was able to find lots of proper documenation about the product.
You obviously didn't try very hard.
Yes, I found those documents. In order to connect Lidar to Arduino, we require FTDI module. So have tried to connect RX and TX pins from FTDI module to Arduino. Using the serial communication I'm trying to communicate, but I'm unsuccessful in getting the proper data. I need some tips to solve these problems.
