Hello @Kaiswim1 and welcome to the RobotShop community,
The accuracy details are clear, but how far can this device reliably work?
According to the specifications of the transceiver used (DW1000) the communications range of up to 290m thanks to coherent receiver techniques.
How to import this device into a new python project? And what types of data can it tell me on a python application?
