Using the VL53L1x API with the controller that I use

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...

We are using vl6180x proximity sensor. Please suggest cover glass and its type

How to read histograms and compute distances from them in VL53L3CX?

Despite many previous questions about how to read histograms from the VL53L3CX, I am still confused how the histogram data is formatted.I currently read out the histogram as follows:I call `VL53L3A2_RANGING_SENSOR_GetDistance`Then right after getting...

The VL53L0x or VL53L1x hardware interface is IIC ,I want to know ​is the range data they output can use to make 3D depth map module? and how do it? Is it have some design details?thanks!

X-NUCLEO-6180A1 GUI Crashing when trying to calibrate

Hi, I am trying to use the X-NUCLEO-6180A1 GUI to perform a offset and x-talk compensation calibration. Something i get the offset one to complete, and others times I don't and then the x-talk one will not complete. It just seems to hang up in the mi...

I wanted to insert a ToF sensor (VL53L4CD) in an anesthetic container, I wanted to know which types of glass are suitable with the sensor.

I wanted to insert a ToF sensor (VL53L4CD) in an anesthetic container, because of the influence of the anesthetic on the sensor I need to protect my sensor with a protective glass, I wanted to know which types of glass are suitable with the sensor (c...

Do all VL53L* sensors use the same VCSEL with the same power?

I was wondering if all the VL53L* sensors use the same VCSEL illumination source with the same average and peak power. I would think the the long-range sensors (VL53L1CB) and the sensors with wide FoVs of 63 degrees, would need a more powerful VCSEL.

Sensor init failed on using VL53L1X ultra low power driver

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...
