Hi, I'm trying out the VL53 series to try to measure the height of liquids in a container. In my use case, we are measuring sauce in sauce cups - ranch dressing, hot sauce, etc. One issue we have noticed is that with oil or oily sauces such as olive ...
Does anyone have access to documentation with an actual list of registers with addresses and functionality and a full description of the register bits for the VL53L0X? All I have been able to find is documentation that refers to the questionable API...
For the same setup the distance values jump between a very high and a very low value. Setup 1: unit facing an open space(ceiling) Result 1 Result 2 Result 3 2514, 2483, 2466, 2407, 2752, 2799, 2808, 15, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...
I have an application that uses 10 VL53L0X sensors on an I2C bus. I seem to have ended up damaging multiple STM32 dev boards trying to get this configuration to work reliably. Any help to understand what I am doing wrong would be appreciated.So, th...
Hi Team,In this post regarding VL6180x proximity sensor, the sensor is detecting the address(0x29) but the readings are receiving as 255 value even the object it detected in front of sensor. for reference purpose go through this code snippet wrote in...
Hi， 1》In the dark，Place the white target 140mm from the sensor call function Status = VL53L0X_perform_offset_calibration(&vl53l0x_dev,0x8c0000,&pOffsetMicroMeter); 2》In indoor environments ，Place the black target 600mm from ...
Hello, I have a VL53 sensor that's outputing distance data but the distance measurements I'm getting are getting "stratified" into about 3 different distances seemingly randomly. I'm using the ULD driver on a custom PCBA with a TM4C1239 microcontroll...
Hi,I am using the STEVAL-EVK-U0I kit with the VD55G0 sensor and the provided Python SDK. Firstly, I wanted to say I really love the capabilities of this sensor and it looks extremely useful for my work. My goal is to capture high frame rates (200-500...
Hello, I try to get data from a X-NUCLEO-53L8-A1 board connected to a Nucleo board and visualize it in my computer. If I use the VL53L8CX Gui and connect my COM port and click on the start button, it is working well. However, I would like to get dat...
Hello, I have multiple VL53L0X sensors that I am communicating with over an STM32 board. Two of the sensors started throwing errors (only reading 8191), and so I moved them to an Arduino for the flexibility of using the downloadable API. They worked ...
