Description

Hello. I'm building a robot with the RPLidar, and in every library i use, when i call `next(lidar.iter_scans())` it only fetches the scan once, then for the second iteration it just freezes. Any help?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior with RPLIDAR: call next(lidar.iter_scans()) and check whether a second iteration freezes. Read the iter_scans entry point and the surrounding scan-handling code; done means determining the cause and confirming that repeated scans complete without freezing.
