leddar_one

Source: drivers/distance_sensor/leddar_one

Description

Serial bus driver for the LeddarOne LiDAR.

Most boards are configured to enable/start the driver on a specified UART using the SENS_LEDDAR1_CFG parameter.

Setup/usage information: https://docs.px4.io/en/sensor/leddar_one.html

Examples

Attempt to start driver on a specified serial device.

leddar_one start -d /dev/ttyS1

Stop driver

leddar_one stop

Usage

leddar_one <command> [arguments...]
 Commands:
   start         Start driver
     -d <val>    Serial device
     [-r <val>]  Sensor rotation - downward facing by default
                 default: 25

   stop          Stop driver

   test          Test driver (basic functional tests)
