So many famous names, I blush, I blush.

I just think it would be nice to see *why* that old Blinder used to be so good on that certain gun, or what the difference really is between what the Blinder does, and the LI does.

Failing that, we should be archiving a collection of "retro LiDAR" pulses... kinda like people archive SNES games.

BTW – Love to message you Mirage, but I don't have the perms. And yes, it's a cheap hack, but it's one that everyone can build. For something serious, I hear one of the STMF3x series of micros has a rediculously fast ADC sampling unit, and SFH2701 photodiodes are becoming the standard for nanosecond-ish measurement. I believe the ALG9 or ALP has 4 of them, along with the OSRAM SPL PL90_3 70W pulsed laser diode. But that's just according to the patents I read, one can never tell if they decided to save money when it came around to production

P.S. How come nobody tried to buy borrow or steal my LE-10 head! I'm offended, those things are rare, and this has never been fired.
