Hi ST team,We are encountering an intermittent issue while using the TOF L3 module in a mid-range distance measurement setup. Below are the details: TOF frame rate: 30ms. Readout rate: 50ms. Distance mode: Medium range.Issue Description: When a stabl...
Hi, Was wondering if there is any info on when the VL53L9CX is expected to be released? Regards
Hallo erveryone, I'd like to know if it's possible to use a VL53L8CX to distinguish between a human and an object and other non-living objects. I've done a little analysis of the data collected by the sensor, motion indication, distances, intensity o...
Hi everybody. Please help me. I bought a VL53L4ED sensor and would like to learn how to use it.I have found a number of documents and driver examples, but have been unable to find a document describing the internal registers and their function. (pro...
Hello. I have recently made a custom PCB as a learning project and I have issues with getting data from the sensor. I have used multiple VL53L7CX Satel prebuilt breakout boards and those work fine with my software. I have used both the qwiic python l...
HiI have been messing around with VL53L4CD for the last few months, and I recently realized that my readings differ significantly, depending on the target color/texture.Here is my setup: The sensor is set on its side, and directly in front of it, at ...
Hi ST Experts, I am working with the P-NUCLEO-53L8A1 evaluation kit and have followed the user guide to install the necessary software packages and GUI. I was able to detect the STLINK COM port connected to the evaluation board. However, after refres...
For a medical device that use NIR light we are using the VL53L4CX as range detector. We found that the TOF sensor light interfere with our NIR lighting system. In order to perform some simulations we would like to have some more details about the lig...
Hello,I’ve been reviewing the current consumption section (Section 7.4) of the VL53L8CH datasheet.I’m currently using the Detection Thresholds plugin, and I would like to ask:Which power mode does this correspond to?Continuous mode (Table 15)?Autonom...
How do you perform a soft reset on the VL53L4CD if XSHUT is not used? I can't seem to find an example. I see the VL53L4CD_ULP_SOFT_RESET or VL53L4CD_SOFT_RESET is defined, but I don't know what to write to it.Also, how do you shut the sensor down w...
