I'm surprised the scanse lidar performs so poorly. Its advantage is supposed to be that it's a "real" ToF lidar vs the triangulation thing that RPlidar does.
Has there been recent news on Quanergy? The latest I could find was from last year saying they'll be out early this year. The price point and specs all seem too good to be true, leaving me a bit skeptical, but I would be very happy to be proven wrong.
