Hi,
Looking at what sensors to invest in for next season, I see two distance sensing modules that are of interest to our team. I know I don't really want ultrasonic because it doesn't seem to work past 10 feet and is prone to interference. The main thing I would use it for would be to calculate the distance to the goal for shooting. I saw a team earlier with a title along the lines of "very fast auto aim"(I can't seem to find the thread...) and they were using LiDAR for their distance readings which made me think that LiDAR might be a cool investment.
So that leads me to my inquiry, is
LiDAR worth the extra hundred dollars vs an
IR sensor? The LiDAR seems to have more distance, but, for example, Stronghold, you really don't shoot from farther than that. Thanks!
