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...
HI,I am using ULD API function VL53L1X_CalibrateOffset() and VL53L1X_CalibrateXtalk() to calibrate the sensor and then I store the parameters in EEprom and everything works fine: with VL53L1X_GetResult() I can see the distance of the object and when ...
Hi,I have a VL53L8CX Sensor on a Satel-VL53L8 board that I am controlling with a custom microcontrollerboard that has an ESP32-S2 chip. I want the microcontroller to sleep until the sensor triggers the Int Pin, based on a threshold that I configure i...
Used sensor: VL53L1XApplication: TOF sensor is on bottom of a liquid filled container to measure the fill level. The light of the TOF-sensor is reflected on:1) Liquid surface (water to air, oil to air)2) Container roof surfaceIs it possible to mask o...
I am trying to use the VL53L5CX with Zephyr. The read and write functions of the platform files seem to work well, but when running an example and attempting to initialize the sensor, when I reach the point of resetting the MCU, I receive a 255 from ...
