About the histogram data of VL53L8

As shown in the figure is a ball, the depth difference of one pixel is less than 3.7mm. But as shown in the histogram, the depth difference is more than 15mm. I would like to know if this is caused by noise or some other reasons?

Of course there is. And I got my nano seconds confused with micro.

Math works better when you use 2e-9.

Remember to account for the bin size of 3.75cm and the fact that the light is going out and back.

(so divide by 2).

Thanks for checking my math.
