Timing budget not kept in VL53L1X

I am trying to get consecutive measurements from the VL53L1X sensor but the timing budget is only kept on the first measurement with the below codeVL53L1X_BootState(dev, &sensorState); VL53L1X_SensorInit(dev); VL53L1X_SetDistanceMode(dev, 2); VL53L1X...

Signal threshold not working as expected?

I'm using a VL53L1X ToF sensor to measure distance with the Ultra Lite driver. I've lowered the signal threshold to 400 because that value seems to cover most valid measurements. When I read the current signal value using GetSignalRate(). When my sig...

Resolved! vl53l5cx_set_ranging_frequency_hz and TOF sensors

The datasheet says the maximum ranging frequency's for VL53L5CXV0GC/1 are 60Hz at 4x4 15Hz at 8x8But the firmware allows for example perfectly 100Hz at 4x4 by setting this value with vl53l5cx_set_ranging_frequency_hz().I also can see the sensor is re...

Resolved! VL53L3 and Sunlight

Hello,I have a problem with VL53L3 sensor measurements. When sunlight hits the sensor, the measurement is distorted, and the measured distance becomes small. Are there any settings for the sensor to remove this glitch when the sun's rays hit?
