Hello community
I’m using RPLiDAR for obstacle detection in my rover.
I simply want to stop rover if any obstacle is detected by the LiDAR sensor when rover is running is AUTO mode.

Is it possible to acheive the above requirement using BendyRuler ?

How it can be configured, please help.

Thanks and regards

Hi
Refer to this Object Avoidance with Bendy Ruler — Copter documentation
and set “OA_BR_TYPE=1” for rovers.

you dont need bendy ruler, thats for navigating around something, you just need simple avoid with it set to stop.
