Greetings - within the "Example_9_detection_thresholds.c" , there a comment (line 164) stating: "... Please note that the first one must always be set with a mathematic_operation VL53L5CX_OPERATION_NONE...."Yet, within "vl53l5cx_plugin_detection_thre...
I am using the VL53L1 Nucleo Pac with the Flight Sense GUI supplied by ST. I am trying to evaluate different ROI settings but everytime I change the ROI, all the calibration settings seem to be cleared. Can one change the ROI in the GUI without reset...
Hi, I plan to use the VL53L3:The goal is to power it with 1300mah battery, 200ms measurement refresh rate, 2 years life expectancy. The product could reach <100µA in this conditions ?Thanks
Hi, I'm trying to get the bare driver running in user mode to work on the Pi, because I just need the easiest way to use the VL53L3CX module, and I think the Linux driver is not necessary. I'm not sure how exactly to get the ULD working on a Pi howev...
It displays the error message "Failed to open /dev/stvmvl53l5"If I run the test program in user mode it works fine.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any documentation relating all tuning parameters. Comments are also missing. Any ressources available?
HiI've downloaded the latest version of STSW-IMG007 (V2.4.5).I'm facing a portability issues with a previous version (2.3.3).As the X-CUBE-53L1A1's software examples are outdated, how can I use it?/What should I do?Thanks,Hamza
The first pixel of each of eight rows seems to provide a good range estimate in mm but the rest of the data is either zero or some huge number that doesn't respond to changes in the field of view. I assumed I would get 64 range estimates as output of...
Is there any documentation how to setup the various threshold parameters? These are the macros defined in the vl53l5cx_plugin_detection_thresholds.h#define VL53L5CX_DISTANCE_MM ((uint8_t)1U)#define VL53L5CX_SIGNAL_PER_SPAD_KCPS ((uin...
Could someone please shed some light on the algorithm the VL53L0X and VL53L1X use to calculate the distance from the returned photons for each laser pulse? @John E KVAM you’ve mentioned in other blogs that photons seen are “averaged�? – is the logi...
