Adv Ranger?

[CBBP]

Could you make one ranger be able to output multiple beams and maybe give it a 360 Pitch yaw and roll ability? Perhaps for putting those valuve it a packet E-gate could be used or such.

Granted, lag would be an issue...but it would be a way to implement full 3d radar. Still, the requirements are too high, I don't think it'll get done.

we need a ranger, forcer, user, data forcer all in one combo. why don't we just combine all the beam based tools and you just check the settings you want kind of like a beacon sensor.

i know this isn't what you where talking about but i think it would be a good addition

See this post. Maybe I could make that except with a beam instead.

Hmm.... what if the Ranger had multiple beams?

What if we had the ability to choose how many beams we want from say 1 to 5 beams (or "eyes"). If they had say a Z option so they could not only be pointed from x & y but at a third angle it could make things a lot better...

The wired camera could benefit from having a 4 eyed ranger could cut render times, and render a depth map in 25% of the time

It would also give the ability to detect from multiple angles at the same time.

Say you have a wired Car, you can use a 3 eyed ranger to keep the car from hitting the sides or hitting something in front of it, with one ranger.

So i don't think that we need a super high resolution scanning ranger that can give the position of objects in a given 3d field... just a few more beams.

that sounds like a very good idea Quadrapod, it would make for great organization and very clean wiring.
