Hi, I'm trying the VL53L7CX sensor for a prototype and I'm trying the example codes provided within this page https://www.st.com/en/embedded-software/stsw-img036.html I'm experimenting the Example_10_motion_indicator and I'm able to display the "mot...
Hi everyone,I’m currently using the VL53L0X sensor to measure the liquid level inside a container, and I have a question regarding the offset calibration procedure described in the documentation.Is it really necessary to perform the offset calibratio...
Hello,I have been using the this ToF sensor along an ESP32-WROOM MCU for a while without major issues. My impementation of the i2c interface seems to be working well since in most simple ranging cases everything works well.However, recently, i have b...
The most viewed and commented post on the Imaging page had to do with an Init failure on the multizone part. These parts have large I2C writes at the beginning, which is downloading the Firmware (on the L5 and L7) and downloading patch updates on the...
On page 9 of https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/vl53l1x.pdf, it is written:"Ranging is continuous, with a programmable delay between two ranging operations (called anintermeasurement period)"This is wrong. It should be:"Ranging is continuous, w...
Hello ST Brightsense Team,Would like to know if the VD66GY Linux driver (STSW-IMG503_V4L2) will work on an NXP IMX8M Mini (no hardware ISP) ? If not will it work with the IMX8M Mini Plus (with Hardware ISP).Currently using the STEVAL-66GYMAI.In the ...
Hello, I am having a hard time finding which software pack this file vl53l8cx_def.h is in? I think once I get that I should be get the zones if Im understanding the error correctly. Please advise. If it helps with the solution I am trying to use t...
I need to cut off all the power supplys of VL53L8 to save power. Does the firmware need to be re-downloaded every time the device is powered on? loading firmware is in the function uint8_t vl53lmz_init( VL53LMZ_Configuration *p_dev)
Hi everyone,I'm working with the VL53L0X sensor and have a couple of questions:Does noise affect the sensor's measurements? Does the sensor include a checksum or mechanism to verify the integrity of I2C messages? Can adding capacitors to the I2C bus ...
Good morning.I am trying to evaluate a P-NUCLEO-53L8A1 evaluation kit. I downloaded the software example from your website and am trying to carry out some tests with water and cofffee.I am wondering whether I could ask you another question to the GUI...
