There I have the issue that I measure a wrong distance of 0 mm (instead of 40 mm). As soon as I tilt the device (<5°) it measures reasonable values. So then it is fine.I also tried it with the evalkit. There I see the same behaviour.Is there a way to...
Hi allI've built an oil tank level measurement system following https://www.instructables.com/WiFi-Oil-Tank-Monitor/The system works very well on the bench, but when installed on my oil tank I'm seeing very low signal levels, especially at low ambien...
HI, We have an application where the VL53L5CX is used near a door that are indirectly exposed to sunlight. I try to be able to do some measurement around 1m. Indoor, the sensor is working good. If I put the sensor near an exterior door, I see some of...
Hi,I'm using CubeIDE 1.9.0 with X-Cube-TOF1 package 3.0 on a Nucleo-F401RE with VL53L5A1 expansion.I want to create the simple ranging example application with additional crosstalk calibration. I followed the steps from software package user manual U...

We are trying to extend the FOV of this VL53L1X sensor, and our current idea is to use multiple that are overlapping. Will these sensors cause interference with each other when they are close together?
Hi, We are trying to measure distance from our sensor through an IR Translucent plastic to a curved metal surface, using a VL53L1X. We are getting reasonable results by they are rather noisy (~10% deviation at times)What sort of changes should we be ...
I thought HANDLE was part of the stm32 hal library so I tried including stm32h7xx_hal.h however it did not resolve the issue
