来自激光雷达传感器的速度测量，用于自动制动系统

Question

For a school project I have been working on a system that will automatically brake when there is danger. Only the requirements are more strict (safety) than just using a ping sensor and detecting a fixed distance. I am going to implement the speed of an incoming object as well.

On the internet I found this awesome 100Hz sample Lidar module that's very cheap. It uses UART with 2 header frames (0x59), after that a dataLowbyte and a dataHighbyte. Here is the datasheet for the module .

So I've started inputting coffee and outputting code (in C) on the atmega328P (Arduino).

As you can see here I've set up the code to read the sensor and process the data. The problem is that it gives back weird readings. Like a distance difference when I'm moving further away and when moving closer even though I stated it not to. Does anyone have experience using this module? Or maybe I misread something of the datasheet.

Answer 1

I found it!

Distance = (8 << distanceH);                            //Combine the data low and data high
Distance |= distanceL;

Should be:

Distance = (distanceH << 8);                            //Combine the data low and data high
Distance |= distanceL;
