Hello,

I'm using a Beaglebone black micro-controller with ROS (melodic, code in rospy) and Adafruit library installed. Is there any way to receive the exact duration is ns/us/secs a GPIO is high? Currently, I want this feature so I can accurately convert a signal beaglebone receives from a sonar sensor, into distance.

Thanks in advance,

Jason C.

I'm sorry, but this does not seem like a ROS question. It's more a low-level GPIO interfacing issue.

As such, I would suggest to post this on a more appropriate forum, such as those dealing with embedded programming.
