Hi friends, currently Iam working for the project (water level monitor with time of flight sensor). For my application it should sense around 4 meters. I have selected the sensor (vl53l5cx) which is 2.7 meters sensing range which black reflective...
Hello,I am developing a system using VL53L1X.I have read UM2510 (A guide to using the VL53L1X ultra lite driver).This library implements the function called "StartTemperatureUpdate".The description for this function states, "This function performs th...
Hi, I'm testing some VL53L4CX for about 10 months with nrf52832 using I2C. It's used in very dark conditions and within 3m and I take 15 measures 24 times a day.Between periods of measures I completely power off the sensor with an LDO.It works fine f...
Hello all,I need some help with a project I'm working on trying to help a disabled elderly family member. basically he have a 600L aquarium that stands on a cabinet, inside the cabinet are all of the aquarium support systems and one of them is small ...
Dear Sir,There is a question about argument VL53L1X_CalibrateXtalk().For cross talk calibration, we will use VL53L1X_CalibrateXtalk() with argument of uint16_t TargetDistInMm,we should give Xtalk calibration distance to the argument. But, we wond...
Hi ,we are looking for a distance sensor that meets the below requirements1.Working distance 5mm to 200mm2. Resolution steps: 0.01mm steps what is the minimum resolution steps your sensor can provide. Let me know if you need anything else.
Hello everyone,I am trying to read the distance data from a VL53L7CX ToF sensor with a Teensy 4.1 board. I am using the SATEL-VL53L7CX breakout board. The sensor is detected by the Teensy, however I when I try to check if the new data are ready to be...
Hello,Been thru all the specs I can find on the VL53L5CX but I can't find how the Zones numbers map to array of distance_mm in the VL53L5CX_ResultsData struct.Is Zone 0,0 distance_mm[0] please?Or can someone point me to the spec/page please?Many th...
The position return aperture of VL6180X is extremely sensible to light at 630 nm (red). I would know the sensistivity spectrum of the position return of the proximity sensor on the chip VL6180X in order to use a filter to cut not too much the red lig...
I read in other posts that it is not possible to read out the VL53L5CX histogram data because there is just too much of it. But I was wondering if it is possible to read it out if we do not care about real-time operation and are okay reading out the ...
