Nodding LIDAR For Applied Research Associates By Roscoe Kane and John Barton

Background  LIDAR stands for Light Detection And Ranging  Emits a pulsed laser beam and measures the time between emission and return to determine distance  Most systems are at best 2 dimensional, with 1 axis of sweep that returns 1 dimension of range

Problem Statement  Develop a system to adapt a 2 dimensional LIDAR system into a 3 dimensional LIDAR system by adding a second axis of rotation

Specs  30º minimum sweep angle .5hz minimum scan rate  Capable of any orientation  Capable of being disabled  Safety for both humans and robot

Our Solution  Move the entire system about it’s center of gravity  Use a resonant spring oscillator to generate an even frequency and allow for a smaller motor  Use a Maxon motor and motor controller to start, stop and maintain oscillation

Spring Sizing  In order to size a spring for our resonant spring oscillator we will need to find the moment of inertia of the unit and bracket  We solved this equation for K, or spring constant: K=(2fnπ)^2I

Spring Sizing   We used the equation I=KMR^2 to estimate the moment of inertia of the bracket and LIDAR unit combined   K is a constant which represents the shape of the object which we estimated to be approximately.5   M is the mass of the object   R is the radius of rotation   I is moment of inertia, the same as in the previous equation

Challenges Faced   The numbers we have calculated are generally not the specified values for springs to order   We had to calculate the size of wire, number of windings and other values in order to come up with an accurate description of the spring we needed   We have yet to find someone who sells springs that meet our requirements

Communications   We have 2 options for communicating between our Maxon motor controller and the PC that ultimately receives and interprets the data We could connect the PC directly to the motor controller and use C code to send and receive data We could connect to 2 microcontrollers, 1 that has controls the oscillation and another that deals with the encoder feedback

Encoding Angular Data  In order for the computer to make use of the data it must know the exact angle at which the measurement was taken  Our Maxon motor has an encoder and the motor driver has the ability to interpret and send back the encoder data to our microcontroller or computer
