Hi,I am using the VL53L3CX distance sensor for a project and I am wondering if it's possible to create my own library functions. The MCU I am using is the ATmega328PB XPlained Mini from Microchip, which only has 32KB of flash memory. The API library ...
Hi,I was wondering if someone can help me with temperature update on the VL53L4CX.According to UM2931 that describes the temperature update in paragraph 3.5 there is a dedicated function named VL53L4CD_Start_Temperature_Update() and can be used when...
Hello @John E KVAM ,Table 14 in the datasheet shows power consumption in Autonomous as going as low as 4.5 mW, but is this only the AVDD power? or total device power? Because I do measure low power draw at those levels, but only on the AVDD pin (and ...
Hi,I have a project for which I need to measure a tank level of tanks with a maximum depth of 3 meters. The challenging part is that many tanks have filling tubes with an inner diameter of 50mm but a length of 1000mm worst case. I have made this draw...
Hi community, I would like to understand if the VL53L5CX is a good choice to develop an application to detect holes and stairs. I decided to study them since I was impressed by these things:The FoV of 45 ° horizontally or vertically;The granularity o...
Hi everyone, can you provide information on the highest temperature and ambient pressure the VL53L0X Time of Flight (ToF) ranging sensor can handle without being damaged? Note: this is not during operation of the sensor (operating temperature is give...
I want to use the VL53L8CH in histogram mode to distinguish between multiple reflective surfaces. I found a c-driver package in STSW-IMG043, but no useful example how to initialize the sensor and get data out (over I2C).What I'am looking for:1) initi...
Hello,Even in the SparkFun product introduction video (2.45-3.00 min), the representative presentation shows there is some bouncing in the sensor reading. I have also experienced the same bouncing issue. How can we deal with this problem? Regards,Fe...
Hello STM Community team:I'm working with a vl53l3cx sensor on a custom board with zephyr rtos but i am not able to get a reading.To use the sensor I just modified the zephyr driver for the vl53l1x, on the .c file inside the driver I made the follow...
Several questions:1. Dimensions of smallest object that can be detected.2. Maximum Sampling rate (60Hz). Can sampling time be adjusted for multiple sensor array.3. Plan to use multiple sensors. What pattern should I use to place the sensors?4. Can in...
