<Guest101> Hi guys I wanted to ask a question about the use of products developed for raspberry pi. Are these sensors compatible with beaglebone? I have a project that needs to implement LIDAR and the best cheap sensor I could find was an Okdo Lidar Module. I really want to use the Beaglebone Blue as it fits the motor control and IMU needs.
<zmatt> Guest101: I mean, that depends on the module
<zmatt> and how it's interfaced
<Guest101> It's only connected through a TX, PWM, GND and 5V connections. And has public drivers available on github. However many places in the datasheet it's stated it was developed to be used with raspberry pi 2-4 models.
<zmatt> yeah that's probably just laziness on their part
<zmatt> it looks like it just needs a pwm and an uart (used for receive only)
<zmatt> the main problem will be to figure out how their software works and what needs to be adapted
<zmatt> especially since the module itself doesn't really appear to be documented
<zmatt> it's just "here, use this software on an rpi"
<Guest101> Yeah I see that, I'll have a look around for any other 360 degree LIDAR sensors but so far this one is much better priced than any other

<zmatt> their code doesn't look very complex
<zmatt> curiously I haven't yet noticed where exactly they're doing anything with the pwm
<zmatt> ah, they don't, the docs just have some vague remark that you can use it for "speed control", but that you'd just have to do that yourself
<zmatt> so yeah, the installer would be useless on a beaglebone but based on what I've seen I'd expect the code itself to work just fine
<zmatt> oh he left
<zmatt> :/
