We have been using the full driver for VL53L1X and would like to try out the new ultra low power driver on our board. Everything works fine with the full driver. However, we are facing a problem on VL53L1X_ULP_SensorInit() when using the ultra low po...
Dear,I want to implement a people counting algoritme using the VL53L1X ToF sensor. I want to build my own PCB for it. I found out that when the sensor is rotated by 90 degrees (gold filters in a row), the edges of a door are measured better then when...
This is the detailed log of the I2C communication between an ESP32 and a VL53L4CX[I][logger:242]: Log initialized [VV][esp32.preferences:070]: nvs_get_blob: key: 233825507, len: 4 [C][ota:469]: There have been 0 suspected unsuccessful boot attempts. ...
Hi, I use the VL53L5CX in my own developped board .Everything seems to work, but i can't get the guesture control code from static lib libGesturesMZ.a working (downloaded from STM website).Initialisation goes fine , all statusses are OK , but the mom...
Hi everyone,I am facing a problem where my VL6180X hangs indefinitely until reset after a seemingly random period of time. The sensor runs in continuous mode and samples at 100 Hz (thanks to this post). I configure the sensor by setting the SYSRANGE_...
Hi Team,Need assembly flow and internal geometry of parts for VL53L5CX. If you have relevant information, is it convenient to share it? those are very much useful to us. Thank you very much.Regards,Ma Yufeng
I'd like to know how the tof sensors technically work in detail. I know about the principle (photons were sent and time taken until receiving the reflection), but how is the field of view created and how can some sensors have a lager FoV than others?...
Hi, I am having issues getting my X-NUCLEO-6180A1 to work with the NUCLEO-F401RE. I have followed the instructions in the manual and the troubleshooting guide, although still cannot get things to work. I believe I need to flash FW manually. alth...
Hi,I have some questions about the latest ToF released VL53L8CA (only databrief released at the moment):Is the VL53L8CA footprint/pinout-compatible witth the VL53L5CX?Is the VL53L8CA on-board microcontroller RAM-based (like VL53L5CX)? If yes, what is...
