I am using the scanse sweep lidar on Windows with python. When I start the example python code it runs fine for a while and then stops and throws me the error below. It seems it can't retrieve sweep.getscan() from the init__.py and makes the scan stop. Does anyone know how to avoid this exception and to continue the scan?
quick start example code:
from sweeppy import Sweep
with Swee p('/dev/ttyUSB0') as sweep:
sweep.start_scanning()
for scan in sweep.get_scans():
print('{}\n'.format(scan))
this is the error and that stops the loop:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/benja/PycharmProjects/LidarUDP/LIDAR_UDP_Unity.py", line 9, in
for scan in sweep.get_scans():
File "C:\Users\benja\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python36\site-packages\sweeppy-1.3.0-py3.6.egg\sweeppy_init__.py", line 207, in getscans
RuntimeError: reading from serial device failed
