I am currently building an app that controls a robot with joytstick interface; however, I want to plot lidar data; initially, I did this using SpriteKit but I realized the performance was too slow:
How to draw 720 data points using Swift
Now, I am using UIKit
My lidar sensor returns 360 data points i.e. distances; these distances are values of how far it detected an object
I am trying to plot circles on a UIView but the coordinate system is very confusing to me;
here is what I am doing currently: I am translating the distances to cartesian coordinates but this doesn't map nice to UIView's coordinate system since the origin (0,0) is on the top left
How can I translate my coordinate system so that the origin is at "(bounds.width/2, bounds.height/2)"?
As you can see in the picture the dots are displaced
