listener_name	string		Unique listener identifier
callback	function or tuple		Callback (see the Callback section in the Listeners Schema page)

`upper_angle`	float		Upper bound of the angles range.
`lower_distance`	float	`0.0`	Lower bound of the distance range.
`upper_distance`	float	`float('inf')`	Upper bound of the distance range.
`ang_unit`	enum	`ANG_UNIT.DEG`	ENUM to select the unit of the angle: (`ANG_UNIT.DEG`) degrees or (`ANG_UNIT.RAD`) radians

Both lower_angle and upper_angle must be into the range [angle_min, angle_max] from laser info (see LidarController.get_laser_info())
upper_angle must be higher than lower_angle.
At least one of both lower_distance or upper_distance must be speficied.
upper_distance must be higher than lower_distance.

Return

None

                                              upper_angle=280,
                                              upper_distance=2.0)
async def loop(self):
        await self.sleep(1.0)
        self.log.info('Doing other (non blocking) stuff!')

def callback_obstacle(self):
