Hardware:

Depends on what you mean by compatible, if you want an exact replacement for hardware just use the clones but remember that unless youre using hats (boards that plop onto eg. Arduino Uno) then you can use any other microcontroller with the caveat that some use 5v as digital io and some use 3.3v My favourites for now are Esp8266/Esp32 if i want some kind of wireless connectivity or need a bunch of ram/rom, usually in the form of seeed studio boards or clones (outputs 3.3v but is fine with 5v as input and most boards that you might want to connect to it even if they except 5v on the io will typically work with 3.3, just power them with 5v) Attiny series 1 or 2 if I’m planning to create a custom pcb and I’m fine with limited ram/rom

But these are just my preferences, a lot of people swear by the raspberry pico series or stm32

Software - IDE Platformio - more complex than arduino ide but also provides more options as its an extension for vs code

Ughh ok, I’ll rewatch “Fifth Wars” again …

I agree, but sometimes using resources on a case which happens next to never is just not worth the effort. Hell there is even a wiki page dedicated to this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostrich_algorithm

But maybe this can be rewritten in another way, feel free to suggest something else ;)

Congratulations!

Your issue just dropped in my priority list

Because:

• You’re being a smartass
• You didn’t provide any details besides “doesn’t work”
• You messaged me after work hours
• You can solve the issue yourself
• It works for me and I can’t be bothered to replicate your specific edge case
• I just don’t like you personally

I’ll revisit it:

• After lunch break
• Tomorrow
• When I’m done with my current project/task
• When I feel like it
• When you resubmit the issue politely/with reproduction steps
• Never

Thank you and:

• Have a good day
• Good luck
• Eat shit
• Go fuck yourself

If for some bizarre reason you would want to stick to cameras only, you could use 2 cameras and calculate the distance to various points based on the difference between the images. Thats called stereoscopy and is precisely what gives our brains depth perception. The issue is that this process is expensive computationally so I’d guess that it would be cheaper to go back to lidar.

Might have used the bed for accelerating PCB etching :)

While whatsapp is using e2e encryption it is still owned by meta, as such I trust it just as much as plain facebook messenger. Signal ftw.
