So, it is running now. Slowly. It's running about 1/10th the speed I had planned on. I've ordered a memory module which should help me speed up some...but I really need a better way of writing to the SD card that is faster.
Also, when I removed all the SD writing code it is turning slower than it was the other day. I wonder if I accidentally changed a setting while doing all the other work.
Oh well. Speed optimization later. Now I'm charging my batteries. One of them is giving an error in the battery charger. It may be dead from me draining it too far.
Next step is to convert the output to a point cloud that can be read by other files. Processing here I come.

Interesting, waiting results and processing metods.

Yeah. I thought i would be there last week. Ugh. But I think I can scan enough to start troubleshooting nonsense readings (I think it puts out nonsense if the sensor is too close to the target). And I'm working tonight on writing a processing sketch to convert the output file to an XYZ file that can be read by CloudCompare or Autodesk.
