EDIT: Figured it out, I had to run the VL6180 in continuous mode.I'm using a VL6180 for hand detection. I've successfully set up the interrupt at a certain range and it works nicely when the MCU is running. When the MCU is not running (aka not pollin...
Hello,I have a problem with VL53L3 sensor measurements. When sunlight hits the sensor, the measurement is distorted, and the measured distance becomes small. Are there any settings for the sensor to remove this glitch when the sun's rays hit?
I wanted to insert a ToF sensor (VL53L4CD) in an anesthetic container, I tried to measure with the sensor water level and that works well and can be measured with it, but I tried to measure with the sensor volatils anestethiks (isoflurane) and unfort...
I'm using a linear array of 3ea VL53L0X sensors to orient a robot with respect to a nearby wall. The assumption is that when all three sensors return the same distance, then the robot is parallel to the wall. The sensors are mounted on a PCB with a ...
Most of the target status seem to return 5 but some do return 255.The data is correct on all 64pixels when I have a near object (200mm) but it cannot detect further objects like the ceiling and instead it will return a seemingly random small distance...
Update : No more issues. Got it solved
Hello,I've got a question.I'm trying to interface two VL53L0x ToF sensors with an ATmega328p board. This worked fine in the arduino IDE with the beautiful Adafruit library. Unfortunately this library does not work in AVR C so I'm trying to create the...
Currently i have a project based on VL53L3CX, and we are planning to use it for short ranging mode, long ranging mode and proximity detection mode. But some confusions happened and trapped me. In first stage, I am trying to use standard driver (sampl...
I am using a TI simplelink controller. How do I go about using the VL53L1 APIs with my controller code. I am guessing I need to use STSW-IMG007 software. I can't use this software directly. How should I go ahead with interfacing it? Any guidance will...
