Undergrad Converting laser distance measurements to tube bend angle
Is there another way to write the atan2d function? Or write the equation you gave without using the atan2d function? My controller doesn't have that math option Thanks for all the help My controller does has atan and atan2 instructions- nddwind

Undergrad Converting laser distance measurements to tube bend angle
Thank you for the reply, how would I use atan2d, or how could I enter that equation into a online calculator like desmos- nddwind

Undergrad Converting laser distance measurements to tube bend angle
Vertical distance from pivot point to the point on the tube that the laser hits is roughly 311mm, horizontal distance is 100mm from tube at 90 degrees. (the 18inches I provided was way off) Thank you- nddwind

Undergrad Converting laser distance measurements to tube bend angle
Apologies if this is the wrong forum. I have an application where I need to measure the bend angle of a tube and display the resulting angle on a screen. I am using a laser mounted in a fixed location which reports distance back to my controller, (scaled to millimeters.) I am measuring from 92...- nddwind
