Hello,
I have started working with the VL53L5CX ToF sensor, for 3d scanning. I have successfully interfaced the sensor with MCU and am able to read the data from it. I have read the datasheet and um2884 user manual as well which explains the different available features of the sensor. A few things I am still confused about -
1. If I want to develop my own firmware for the sensor, I am not able to find the I2C protocol register addressing in the datasheet. I found a library from ST micro for interfacing. How can I make my own library if needed?
2. For a 4x4 or 8x8 resolution, what is the size of the smallest block in the grid at a particular distance x (in mm). I am asking about both the size of the whole grid and the size of the smallest block in the gird. This will make me understand what is the least count of the point cloud in my scanning.
3. What is the minimum thickness of a material that the sensor can detect.
4. I am not able to understand the option called "Target order", and what is the strongest target order means, What can be a use case of it.
5. In the datasheet, the orientation of the sensor detection is mentioned. Is there a way to integrate the orientation in the code to make angle correction? Or we need to orient the sensor wrt pin A1 when scanning an object.
Looking forward for the response
