Ping protocol's missing features for Ping360

There is a pretty good discussion on the forum about how the sensor works, how you can use the libraries to communicate and how to do the necessary math to operate here:

Please provide some answer regards ping360

We use standard setting that come with the example which is: +p.set_transmit_frequency(800) +p.set_sample_period(80) +p.set_number_of_samples(200) 4…
