The files establish a serial comm link with Lidar with the required settings. The function LidarScan.m is called with serial communication object as argument to return a range vector consisting of decoded Lidar Scan data.

It returns the data after a full scan (-120 to +120 degrees) with 682 points.

Edit SetupLidar.m with the correct COM Port to use this file.

The file is a quick and easy way to stream range data from a Hokuyo Lidar in the MATLAB environment.

It works well for the URG-04LX as the decoder function supports only two and three bit encoding.
