How to scan map RPLidar A1. It's possible or not?
You will need something more powerful than arduino. You will need something like the Odroid XU4.
I use an ESP32 with a TFMini. The TFMini is on a stabilized X/Y platform. The mini scans on a Z axis rotation. I get a good imaging out to 500cm in a +/-5 degree, around center position, scan that is displayed on a 128X128 OLED screen. One ESP32 is for the LDAR, the X/Y platform, and sends its data to another ESP32 WROVER-B for processing and display. I am doing 12 scans per degree. The scan is bi-directional. Data communications are bidirectional and is done over a CAN buss at 1MB. The wire for communications between the two ESP 32's is a triaxial cable. There is a 3rd ESP32 being brought into the system for mobility.
