A real-time 2D radar-style visualization for RPLidar sensors, built with Python and pygame.
Plots live LIDAR points with distance-based colors (red for close, yellow for medium, green for far), and reference circles for quick distance approximation.
- π‘ Real-time LIDAR plotting in a radar-like view
- π¨ Distance-based color coding
- Red β Close (β€ 1.0 m)
- Yellow β Medium (1.0 β 2.0 m)
- Green β Far (2.0 β 3.0 m)
- π Updates once per full rotation (avoids point overlap)
- π’ Distance rings & labels every 50 cm for visual reference
- π₯ Custom Pygame interface with project title display
Install dependencies:
pip install pygame pyrplidar
