Hii, I am writing to seek support regarding an issue I am facing with the VL53L4CX Time-of-Flight sensor. In my current setup, I’m consistently encountering incorrect distance measurements beyond 2 meters, where the sensor tends to report value...
Hello,We have been using multiple VL53L3CX sensors for some time but only using one zone. Now, we want to use all four of them but we are running into some issues: Specifically, we can only read one zone while the rest all return status 255. In addit...
I am getting occasional readings from this sensor of zero(0) reading result with the error code 31. According to the header file this error corresponds to:#define VL53L1X_WARNING_OFFSET_CAL_MISSING_SAMPLES ((VL53L1X_Error) - 31)/*!< Thrown if there ...
Hello everyone.I'm currently working with ToF sensor VL53L5CX. I wanted to use it in collaboration with a digital camera.But I can see the laser from ToF if the target has a high reflection level. I know that I can simply use the IR filter,but I want...
Firstly, on behalf of our company, I would like to appreciate the great products that have been delivered by STM through the years, wish STM well and prosper.#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...
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...
