The Hokuyo UST-10LX Laser range finder will send its output over ethernet,
thus the STM32 nucleo board will act receiver.

Having ethernet hardware does not solve the problem altogether since the
protocols and setup required for functional ethernet communication is non-trivial.

\subsubsection{Sonar HC-SR04}
On the quadcopter, six ultrasonic sensors will be mounted to serve as collision avoidance.
The sensors offer range detection from $\SI{2}{\centi\meter}$ to $\SI{400}{\centi\meter}$ and its operation
is not affected by sunlight or black material.

The built in USART in the STM32F7-NUCLEO supports several communication standards for data transmission.
Among these are RS-232 which requires two extra lines for communication. A Ready To Send (RTS) and a
Clear To Send (CTS), which adds a layer of hardware flow control.
