Hi,We are currently in a project where we want to use the VL53L0X chip for ranging. And the example code with PC application seems to work quite good. the next step is to create a PoC using our own system (where we are now).I am currently reading up ...
Hi,in my next application I plan to use VL53L1X. What I also need, independent from the object detection, is the amount of ambient light. Would it be possible to read that value from VL53L1X using it's full API? Is that value at all available in one ...
Hi! Is there release date for the new VD55H1 sensor? Does it come with a development set?Best,Wayne
Hello,I was unsure if the VL53L7CX would be able to detect glass walls. Often ToF sensors are unable to as light passes through the glass, but was curious that the non-zero reflectance of glass (usually <10% but still nonzero) allows VL53L7CX to dete...
Hi:When I move the object detected by the VL53L4CX, I find that there is a one cycle delay in the distance it returns. Is this because its first data is discarded?(Range status=6)？ Is there a way to improve this?Thankyou.Cyt
Hey, I want to see the 8x8 matrix in the VL53L8CX_GUI but when I try to connect it in the GUI the nucleo does not appear. But it appears by flash. In the device managment from my windows 11 I see the board is on COM8. (See screenshot)Do you guys have...
Hi,I use to 12 ToF(Vl53l1x) sensor on the robot for security range detect. And at the some situations, this sensors stop ranging data. I detect last regular data and then reset sensor. when starting sensor can do bootstate function. But can not do se...
Hello I want to measure the distance of water in a cylindrical container to the lid of the cylindrical container. I need to find the height of the water by subtracting the measured distance from the height of the cylindrical container. Since there is...
Hello,I can't find the measurement accuracy of the 2 sensors mentioned above in your documentation. Could you please provide me with this information?Thank you.Regards,
I've seen references to various A and B or (even and odd) messages for the ToF sensors.In my application, it turns out that every other measurement is not great, so if I throw out packets based on their message ID count, then I get perfect data but a...
