Very cool but I think the limitation you are seeing are due to the spacing of the transmitter and receiver. The top missing data may be due to the reflection of the wave due to the sharp angle.

You got it right. Thanks for watching Robotics EveryDay!!!

Cool project! You should consider using an infrared distance sensor and also placing another distance sensor at the top to get a better view of the object's shape

[@RoboticsEveryDay]

That's the plan! We are also thinking of making a handheld 3D-Scanner, which will have distance sensors and IMU to get the exact position of the scanner in the 3D space and make the scanner portable. Thanks for the tip! Robotics EveryDay!

How did you solve the plot? I have tried several formulas but I can't get more than a ball and when I try to graph a cube it looks bad

Cool!

Thanks! Robotics EveryDay!

👏👏👏

can you try with a VL53L0x, I am building one but there are some problems when reading data and control the servo at the same time :((

[@BUBAFONEK]

Did you manage to get some usable data out of it? I have recently created a similar design using the VL53L0x and two stepper motors (one turning the object and the other one moving the sensor vertically using a threaded rod) and the output is just garbage.

[@jorsanflo]

put the sensor verticaly

[@RoboticsEveryDay]

Thanks for the suggestion, we will try with that. Robotics Everyday!
