I'll second the recommendation for the Neato. I have a couple with
the support boards and they work nicely with the ROS package. You
can usually find the lidar on e-bay and the support boards, also. <br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
There is also the lidar from the Neato XV-11 robot vacuum but you have
to find a working one and add a board to drive the motor.
There is a ROS driver: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.ros.org/xv_11_laser_driver">http://wiki.ros.org/xv_11_laser_driver</a>
It is not the simplest but by far the cheapest Lidar I found.

<pre wrap="">Hi All,
I am currently prototyping a home-utility robot as POC (to be
industrialized), and need a really cheap Lidar that has at least been
proven to work with ROS.
Im using ROS on top of Raspberry Pi 2.
(im currently looking at lidar lite 2 and rp-lidar, but im not so sure
as i cant see any ROS project featuring those)
Any ideas pls?
Rgds,
Jake
