I've used the LIDAR-LITE v2 (the V3 is now available) to build a product that incorporated a motor to scan the beam.

I made a handful of units for one company last summer, so the dev cost is covered already. I'd be willing to build a few more. How many do you need?

I'm going on a tangent on my job to make a proof of concept that would later be presented and maybe funded so I have 0 dollars to put on this at this point.

My guesstimate is that once everything is said and done we would need about 20 units. But It's a wild guess. It could be way more.
