Lidar Sensor with a 180 degrees view

Hello.
First time poster here.
For a project I am looking into LiDAR sensors.
It needs to be a Sensor like a roomba vacuum robot has it on top. That is in most cases a rotating single point lidar sensor. This sensor is creating a top down view of the room.
I need a compact sensor that is creating the same top down view but only 180 degrees. I found out about polygon mirrors rotating and reflecting the lidar light. That should be enough. The other option with a MEMS mirror would be overkill I think.
But finding components is very hard!
Any ideas for polygon mirrors or 180 degree LiDAR modules?

Kind regards

Finn

You can check RPLIDAR A1/A2 and LD06/LD19 LiDAR Modules.
