LIDAR is radar with lasers. You’re not using it to blind anyone. It’s a way of detecting the physical space around the sensor with a very high degree of accuracy, especially when it comes to distance.
Why would it need to spin 360 degrees
To work both forwards and backwards
That’s 180
…thats just backward
Spinning is so much cooler than not spinning.
