dToF vs Traditional LIDAR: dToF wins for dark room obstacle avoidance

dToF is simpler, cheaper, and has no moving parts, making it the pragmatic choice for indoor obstacle avoidance. Traditional LIDAR uses a rotating mirror or laser array for 360-degree mapping, which is overkill for avoiding a coffee table in a dark room. dToF works in pitch black without drift, while traditional LIDAR is better suited for self-driving cars or large-scale mapping.
