I have created a green laser (532) project w/ Arduino and I'm trying to find a way to measure the distance of the laser programmatically. This may be a pretty simplistic question but is there a sensor out in the world that can measure laser distance? I want to paint a object say 100yds out with my green laser and programmatically determine how far that is. This seems common in laser tape measures but I have no idea how they are doing this Any tips would be grateful!
I was looking at Lidar but I'm not sure if that's the right use or could be dialed in to pick up only the 532 point that is projected.
