VL6180_SimpleRanging example using Bottom sensor

I'm trying to adapt the example code available on st.com for VL6180_SimpleRanging (STM32CubeExpansion_6180A1_V1.0.0 for STM32F401RE-Nucleo) so that the Bottom sensor is used, rather than the one soldered directly on the 6180XA1 expansion board (V2).M...

vl6180 liquid measure

I need to measure the level of a transparent liquid of small depth (5-20mm). I try vl6180 or vl6180X. The sensor is located at a height of 30-40mm from the bottom. The sensor does not see the liquid. It shows the distance to the bottom. If you gradua...

Using VL53L0X with ESP32

Hello,I am trying to use a VL53L0X with an ESP32. The integration is being done using VS Code with the Espressif extension.My issue is with the VL53L0X API. I added the API to my main folder but when I call some functions they are not being recognize...

How did work VL53L0X calibration process

We are conducting study on mapping using VL53L0X proximity sensor to your company. But we met some problems while we were researching.​To proceed with the mapping, we need to know exactly what the value returned by the sensor means. So it's important...

I want to make an own library of VL53L3CX sensor to integrate with ESP32, I have downloaded the API driver code from the ST official website. I am facing the below file error while compiling.

fatal error: ranging_sensor_comms.h: No such file or directory.The error is from the vl53lx_platform.c file, I have searched entire API driver code files and I didn't find the #include "ranging_sensor_comms.h" file.I want to know two things:How to ta...

VL53L1X-Satel breakout board with STM32H7B3I-DK.

Hi everybody!We are running out of time with our project, so every contribution is much appreciated!We are using VL53L1X to detect the liquid level in a water tank. We could SOMETIMES read the range data but not always. We are experiencing the VL53L1...

VL6180, very high range error

Welcome,I'm trying to use VL6180 sensor, but range results are unstable. They can vary about +-10 mm between readings.I'm using official C api. ECE, Filter and RangeIgnore are disabled. Upscale set to 1. Power supply 2,8V from linear regulator.I trie...

Yes your response is overly complex and my compiler had many unresolved problems with it. What I need is a SIMPLE. list of api function calls and .h file written in "C" NOT "C#" SEE BELOW IN DETAILS PLEASE RESPOND ASAP MY TIME IS RUNNING OUT

I recently bought a VL53L1X board from Pololu and I try to integrate it in a project based on ESP32 with micropython. I couldn't find yet a working micropython library - can you advise ?
