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...
Resolved! How to get the VL53L4CD to interrupt when nothing is detected
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...
Resolved! vl53l5x GO2 error on 8x8 resolution
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 ...
How to implement the VL53L3CX on a Raspberry PI3
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...
Resolved! VL53L8CX Power consumption is too high
Hello,in the datasheet for the L8, the power consumption for a low power mode such as autonomous 4x4, 1Hz frequency and 5 ms integration time is given to be 1.6 mW . I tried measuring the power consumption for a similar mode which is autonomous 4x4 @...
