I want to ask about TF-Lunar Lidar, I've written code to know the distance in "cm" by reading the array data, right now I need some help about how to read the data so it can be showing below "cm", (mm or below but in decimal).
this is the code
#include <SoftwareSerial.h> //header file of software serial port
SoftwareSerial Serial1(2,3); //define software serial port name as Serial1 and define pin2 as RX and pin3 as TX
/* For Arduinoboards with multiple serial ports like DUEboard, interpret above two pieces of code and
directly use Serial1 serial port*/
float dist; //actual distance measurements of LiDAR
int strength; //signal strength of LiDAR
float temprature;
int check; //save check value
int i;
int uart[9]; //save data measured by LiDAR
const int HEADER=0x59; //frame header of data package
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial1.begin(115200); //set bit rate of serial port connecting LiDAR with Arduino
}
void loop() {
if (Serial1.available()) { //check if serial port has data input
if(Serial1.read() == HEADER) { //assess data package frame header 0x59
uart[0]=HEADER;
if (Serial1.read() == HEADER) { //assess data package frame header 0x59
uart[1] = HEADER;
for (i = 2; i < 9; i++) { //save data in array
uart[i] = Serial1.read();
}
check = uart[0] + uart[1] + uart[2] + uart[3] + uart[4] + uart[5] + uart[6] + uart[7];
if (uart[8] == (check & 0xff)){ //verify the received data as per protocol
dist = uart[2] + uart[3]*256; //calculate distance value
strength = uart[4] + uart[5] * 256; //calculate signal strength value
temprature = uart[6] + uart[7] *256;//calculate chip temprature
temprature = temprature/8 - 256;
Serial.print("dist = ");
Serial.print(dist);//output measure distance value of LiDAR
Serial.print('\t');
Serial.print("strength = ");
Serial.print(strength); //output signal strength value
Serial.print('\t');
Serial.print("Chip Temprature = ");
Serial.print(temprature);
Serial.print(" celcius degree"); //output chip temperature of Lidar
Serial.print('\t');
Serial.print("check");
Serial.println(check);
}
}

I don't believe your code is flawed in any way, but your request is quite impossible. If my understanding is correct, the Luna's max resolution is 1 cm, so you shouldn't have any data for mm or decimals past cm. See specs as listed on dfrobot. https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1995.html
I am having a problem with reading random data in my Arduino Mega (Master) from my Arduino Uno (Slave) while using I2C communication.
Some background: I am reading Encoder data from the Uno and sending to the Mega via I2C communication. The encoder data is been used in the MEga to adjust the speed of a motor so that the revolutions per second of the different wheels have the same value.
The issue of reading random data arises when I include an IF condition or function.
Even if the IF condition included is an empty one or a call to function which has an empty body it starts to read random wrong data from the Uno.
If i don't have the adjusting part (IF condition/ function) of the code the reading of the data from the Uno works fine.
If anybody can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

I am trying to interface an ADNS 9800 mouse chip which I took from "Sharkoon SHARK ZONE M50" . The original PCB is still in place.
I am trying to obtain a framecapture, which should be 30 x 30 pixels. I have connected the ADNS 9800 with SPI to an Arduino UNO Rev 3 (i.e. 5V operating voltage). I.e. MISO, MOSI, SCLK, DGND, AGND, NCS. I did not connect any voltage, since I concluded from previous attempts that that did not yield a good frame capture.
The current problem is that I get a frame capture that is divided in 3 parts: square top left (with a good image of the surroundings), square bottom left (which is a duplicate of top left) and a rectangle on the right half of the screen of monotone grey colour (which does change depending on light conditions). See image. I want the full screen to be one image, not the divided mess it is now. Therefore, it may be a question of the resolution that is used, it may be that it is 15x15 instead of 30x30. However I do not know where this is determined/set.
Also, I find it strange that no input voltage seems to be needed to obtain an image from the camera.
See attachments for frame capture and code (arduino + processing).

if I'm reading an analog signal from my pressure sensor at 500mSec. my instructor told me that you should make the ADC Timr0 interrupt double what you are reading from analog Oscilloscope (500mSec.).i.e. 2fc. My code is down below.
Should I configure my timer0 to be 20Hz or less or more?
enter code here
char temp[5];
unsigned int adc_value;
char uart_rd;
int i;
unsigned int d[10]={0};
int average = 0;
int counter =0;
void interrupt(){
if (INTCON.T0IF) {
INTCON.T0IF = 0 ;// clear T0IF (Timer interrupt flag).
}
TMR0 = 178;
}
void main() {
temp[0]='1';
temp[1]='2';
temp[2]='3';
temp[3]='4';
temp[4]=' ';
OSCCON= 0x77; //8MHz
ANSEL = 0b00000100; //ANS2
CMCON0 = 0X07; //
TRISA = 0b00001100;
UART1_Init(9600);
TMR0 = 178 ;
//CMCON0 = 0X04; // turn off compartor.
OPTION_REG = 0x87; //
INTCON =0xA0;
while(1){
average= ADC_Read(2);
temp[0] = average/1000+48;
temp[1] = (average/100)%10+48;
temp[2] = (average/10)%10+48;

When preform sampling on a signal you are not capturing all of is information but only parts of it with a given sampling period.
The Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem claims that if you can actual sample at above of some given frequency you can get all the information of a finite bandwidth of the signal. This frequency is twice the maximum frequency of that bandwidth.
If you don't do comply with that frequency you will suffer from an effect called aliasing.
You can learn more about here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliasing
I doing a project with Arduino Uno R3 and XBee S2 transmission. I use a couple of sensors like a wireless (RF) temperature sensor, two SHT75 sensors, a 3-axis accelerometer and an illumination sensor. And after collecting the data, we use XBee (S2, API mode) to send the data to the gateway. Every round is about one second.
The first problem is the data is about 16 bytes, but the packet does not send successful every round. Sometime it works, and sometimes it doesn't, but the payload of XBee can be 60 or 70 bytes in the datasheet... But if I put the payload as some simply an integer (like 1, 2, 3), not the data from sensor, and the transmission will be stable.
After meeting the problem above, I divided the data into two packets (each with an eight bytes payload), and the first packet is very stable, but the second is very unstable. As mentioned above, if I put some number into the second packets instead of the sensing data the second packet will become stable and send successfully every round.
So I think it's the code problem, but idk where is the problem. I try to change the baud rate or increasing the delay time between the two packets. Where is the problem? The following is my code:
#include <XBee.h>

as I am writing this I have solved the same problem you have, though with similar hardware setup. I have used bare avr atxmega128a3u (so no arduino board) and an Xbee S1 communicating on baud rate 115200. After a few days trying to figure this out I came to conclusion, that if your avr is not running at precise clock (external xtal) and you use slightly "faster" baud rate ( >= 115200 ) Xbee's serial hardware has probably trouble recovering clock signal resulting in errors in transmission. (Maybe Xbee has slow bit sampling rate).
Anyway, by ensuring your microprocessor is running at stable clock (you should be safe here 'cause arduino has an external xtal) and by using slower baud rate (try 57600, 19200 or 9600) should solve your problem. I hope so. :) ...And don't forget to reconfigure Xbee's baud rate in XCTU.
And also it might help if you initliaze xbee only once.Move these lines into setup() function:
setup(){
// This is changed
Serial.begin(9600);
// This is new
xbee = XBee();
xbee.begin(Serial);
// ...
}
EDIT: Also you might be interested in this website where you can see what is the % of error for given clock frequency and baud rate (as well as direct register values to set if you were using bare avr) http://www.wormfood.net/avrbaudcalc.php?postbitrate=9600&postclock=16&hidetables=1
