High Speed Sampling Protocol and Compatibility
The RPLIDAR S1 adopts the newly extended high Speed sampling protocol for
outputting the 9200 times per second laser range scan data. Users are required to
update the matched SDK or modify the original driver and use the new protocol
for the 9200 times per second mode of RPLIDAR S1. Please check the related
protocol documents for details.
