Here's a link to Sparkfun's list of documents related to this sensor. Notice the GitHub link is for using the sensor in ROS (not what we're using).

Found this library that is written in Python that supports the lidar sensor we have. @tejashah88 the ROS library seems to follow the same exact paradigm that is used in MQTT (publish and subscribe), and involves using callbacks (making porting that library more of a master wizard task).
