Hello dear friends. We purchased the “Ping2 Sonar Altimeter and Echosounder” device. When our vehicle is very close to the wall of the pool, the received data is extremely large, and the reliability is high. How can we prevent this?
Hi @berkant -
By “reliability” do you mean the confidence estimate? This may be due to multi-path reflections in your pool, and is somewhat unavoidable if so… In open-water environments, it should not occur!
Thanks for answer. We will try algorithmic solutions.
Hey @berkant we are trying to accomplish a similar project of mapping a swimming pool using the Ping2 for obstacle avoidance.
Were you able to come up with any algorithms to solve the issue, or have any suggestions of where we should start?
Hi @berkant and @ben1219925 -
Setting the maximum range the Ping2 is searching within to detect the bottom may help reduce the risk of multipath interference!
