is it possible to use ping360 with arduino? cause i only see ping1D examples, i cant find any ping360 samples to get started
Hi @axppxsky -
At the data rates the Ping360 communicates, an Arduino is not a good fit for receiving and processing the volume of data! That said, you may be able to receive the data with the unit configured to output RS485, as it will be standard ping protocol messages.
could you point me to any python based helper code? im only running into ping 1d examples. my goal is to make a point cloud.
also would arduino mega also not suffice for ping 360?
Hi @axppxsky -
I don’t think any Arduino would be well suited, but I could be wrong. Creating a point cloud is a challenging task, will the sonar be stationary?
You can find documentation on the Ping protocol here.
This code may be helpful.
This has been a popular topic on our forum as well!
Best of luck!
