Dear sir/madam,
I am using the VL53L7CXV0GC/1 ToF sensor, and my main goal is to stop the motion immediately when the sensor detects an object. However, the sensor is taking too much time to detect the object, due to which my device is colliding with it. I need to overcome this delay issue.
I have already tried increasing the frequency and timing settings, but the delay still exists.
Currently, I am using the sensor in 8x8 resolution mode. I want the sensor to detect objects only when they appear exactly in the center area of the sensor’s field of view. I tried ignoring the top zones (Zone 1 to Zone 48), but the sensor is still detecting objects from those ignored zones.
To solve this, I selected only the center zones: 26, 27, 28, 35, 36, 37, 43, 44, and 45. Although the sensor is now detecting objects mainly in the center area, the detection is still slow, and the device is hitting the object before stopping.
Please provide a solution as soon as possible.
Thanks, and regards,
Chaitanya B
