We are using Vl53L0x for distance measurement up to 20 cm. While testing with filter glass (recommended by ST) we observed result deteriorate by 1mm for few measurement areas against results without filter glass. Now I will work cross talk calibratio...
I wanted to use this sensors for person detection in Washroom pipe & urinal applications. I have tried different models of housings for sensor. But so many times, the taps are automatically turned on without any persons. So can anyone suggest me reco...
VL53L1X has VCSELs and 16x16 SPADsWhat I am curious about is the order of operation when reading 16x*16 SPADs one by one.1. VCSEL on2. Read SPAD[0,0] value3. VSCEL off4. VSCEL on5. Read SPAD[1,0]6. VSCEL offwhether or not1. VSCEL on2. Read SPAD[0,0]3...
We're currently evaluating a VL53L1X sensor underwater (in a sealed housing) , but beyond 2m IR light is absorbed too much. A ToF sensor based on 532nm would achieve better results. Which options exist other than 940nm?
Hi, We have been testing the VL53L1X for a while. The primary intend is to measure the occupation a container (30cmx30cmx80cm) filled by small objects (10cmx10cm). We would like to limit the number of sensors to have a low energy consumption (system ...
We are using VL53L0x for measuring piston position inside syringe.We consider piston position at bottom of syringe as reference position.As we move piston to top, the difference between actual and measured reading start increasing.At bottom differen...
We are working on an application where we are making VL6180X detect an approaching hand towards it. We would like to understand how can this application work when sensor is covered by an opaque black film. Is there a special calibration required? The...
Hi everyone,I tried to use the eval board nucleo 53L1A1 with nucleo F767ZI with the API STSW-IMG005.I adapted the API without the serial line, i used the HAL_I2C lib etc .I used the example single ranging in the example folder in API.the first part ...
Hi,Readings from my VL6180X sensor are very unstable. They vary about +-8 mm from measure to measure.I tried with Nucleo board and official api, and also with Arduino board and Sparkfun code. 2,8V power supply is from linear regulator, measured objec...
