Some users expressed excitement about the robotics tech module after experimenting with it, while others dismissed the viral claims as it is already available, inferior to alternatives like ST's LiDAR, and underwhelming.

@i2cjak this shit's out
this is going to completely change robotics

@yacineMTB As an aspiring amateur of robotic hands, I see your fancy techno thingamabob and raise you this...

@yacineMTB Can it work outdoors tho?

@yacineMTB I’m so excited for this module

@yacineMTB He doeesn't know about https://www.mouser.co.uk/new/ams-osram/ams-aqaa-20-belago-dot-projector/

@yacineMTB … this is already available and it pretty much sucks. If you like running into stuff because is not brightly colored sure

@yacineMTB Good price point too… it’s unfortunate that nobody is stocking the sensor without the breakout board.

@yacineMTB what is it

@ntbrown01 @yacineMTB why is this special? accuracy? we kinda had this functionallity before right

@yacineMTB

@yacineMTB wow, basically a solid state lidar.

@yacineMTB @i2cjak wow

@L42ARO @yacineMTB grock says it has 5cm-9m range. Should be enough to slam even outside

@yacineMTB @i2cjak Hrm, hope I can figure out how to use it. Looking to coach my school's robotics team next year, but probably too fresh and advanced, but also want to start dabbling on my own as well.

@yacineMTB @i2cjak I had it already for 1 year to experiment its a great piece of tech

@yacineMTB Interesting

@_wakanabi @yacineMTB Do you know of the module?

@yacineMTB They're selling faceid on mouser and you're still using ST's LiDAR
