Hi,We are trying to mount the VL537CX ToF(Pololu) sensor on roof of a car and map a certain area of the cabin. The sensor is pointed downwards.But we are observing the a pattern flashing (appearing for a single frame of ToF data) at an interval varyi...
Dear altruist, I need urgent help. Can I apply hardware-based external triggering in the VL53L8CX sensor by STM32 Nucleo F401RE? Will the sensor work for external triggering? Thank you
Hello,I have already use VL53L0X sensor provided by AZ-Delivery.My main problem is that I2C address can be changed but NOT permanently.I am looking to "Adafruit VL53L4CX Time of Flight Sensor". But I don't want to discover the same problem, that is I...
Does the ambient value affect the distance measurements in the VL53L8CX, or are both parameters independent of each other?
Dear ST,The VL53L8CH's example codes have demonstrated how the sensor can be controlled through set of APIs. However I am still not very sure about how can I switch between different working modes on-the-fly during runtime.For example, assume I have ...
Hello Everyone ! I would like to know if it is possible to measure ambient light levels either directly or indirectly , using the VL53L8CX sensor. Thank you in advance
I'm using several VL53L7CX sensors in a robotics application. They work well except for when a retroreflective surface is present, which blinds the entire sensor, including SPADs not pointed at the retroreflective surface. A large retroreflective a...
I am currently working with the P-NUCLEO53L1A1 evaluation kit for the VL53L1X sensor and have encountered some technical questions. I would appreciate your insights.From the official documentation, I understand that SignalRateRtnMegaCps represents th...
I am trying to use VL53L8CX with stm32f4 discovery but had no success. Implementing the preexisitting API has been tough. Is there a register map for this sensor whcih can be used to create a minimalistic driver and interface sensor using I2C or SP...
I am trying to use VL53L4CD to detect whether there is a car on top of the sensor or not...I am placing my sensor on the ground and trying to detect if a car is parked on top of the sensor. But it is not able to detect the cars bottom surface. Howeve...
