I need to work with three tof sensors (VL53L0X) at once. First i checked one sensor and it worked well. the code is below. #include "main.h" #include "vl53l0x_api.h" // Define the I2C handle I2C_HandleTypeDef hi2c1; // Define GPIO pins for XSHUT c...
Background:I'm building a battery-powered device with an extremely tight energy budget (14mAh battery).I take a ranging once every 10 seconds (configurable, can be down to 1s).We need good accuracy indoors in close distances (up to 2m).Outdoors and a...
Hello, i've recently made a board including a VL53L8 Time of flight sensor connected to an STM32G071 over SPI.I'm using the VL53LMZ api to connect to it and after modifying the platform.c file i've managed to talk to the sensor (vl53lmz_is_alive() se...
We are using part number VL53L3CX on the X-NUCLEO-53L3A2 board, and one feature we were expecting, for example, is for the sensor to generate an interrupt via configurable GPIO in the following situations:it is inside or outside a measurement window,...
I have two VL53L7CX Time of Flight sensors connected to a STM32F401CCU6. I was able to modify the X-CUBE-TOF VL53L7CX template to support both sensors, but I can't get low power mode to work for some reason. specifically, trying to use a sensor afte...
Hello,I intended to use VL53L4CDV0DH in my project.Could VL53L4CDV0DH measure reflective wafers material? ThanksChuong
Hi my name is Kevan Sherwood with Rayhawk Technologies, we develop an autonomous solution for opening and closing rails cars during the loading process. We have a toolhead that scans the gantry for a railcar to be opened and it then finds the latches...
I am trying to use the VL53L4CD as a low power tamper sensor so that it interrupts when someone removes a lid. I am using the ULP driver and I pulled in SetDetectionThresholds from the other driver. I have been able to configure it to interrupt whe...
Hi,I managed to get the sensor working with firmware VL53L5CX_1.3.11. It works even if I reduce the data load and disable everything except distance.My problem is, that I do not receive any data if I switch the resolution to 8x8 - the sensor is only ...
My goal is to implement the VL53L3CX TOF sensor on a Quanser Qdrone as a sensor for height control. As an inbetween I am trying to get the VL53L3CX working with my Raspberry PI3 first to better understand how the sensor and API work. So far I have no...
