Review on Revolutionary Youyeetoo EAI YDLIDAR T15: Unleashing Advanced 360-Degree TOF Laser Range Lidar Sensor for Outdoor Robot Navigation & Obstacle Avoidance within 15 Meters Radius by Christopher Gulledge

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not for 8-bit Micro/Arduino and very slow

Two stars if you try this on an Arduino. With their library it barely works on Uno and I can't get it to work on Mega. I wrote my own software and it has so many communication errors and bad data that it's not worth trying to perform robotic navigation: your robot will sit idle for over 10 minutes trying to bridge the gap. rooms. plus that Yahoo solved the non-standard connection speed?! 125000 baud? Serious? Check out some videos on YouTube. If you are using a PC, the software works fine. It's still slow but works fine over USB. I would give up this model and buy another. I was very disappointed and switched to another product that works great.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
