Abstract
Accuracy and precision are two of the most important metrics of experimental measurements. In this work, the data from a home-build lidar prototype is used to suggest a new method for teaching these two quantities to undergraduate students. The method involves curve fitting which in turn helps students develop computational skills while doing the activity. In addition, the method can be used for quantification of lidar systems.
