how to use VL53L0x or VL53L1x ranging data make 3D depath map module ？

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!

If you want a 3D depth map, may I recommend just buying the VL53L5CX.

The L5 provides an 8x8 'image' of depths. Each range is about a 5x5 degree area and for a lot of purposes it works a lot easier.

read the documention on the VL53L5CX. Maybe buy the evaluation kit from Mouser or Digikey and give it a try. It might just work for you.

Hi Josn:

Here I have another question about VL53L1CB，in its datasheet，It says，Time-of-Flight ranging sensor with advanced multi-zone and multi-object detection and can apply to Dual camera stereoscopy and 3D depth assistance thanks to multi-zone measurement. So ,may VL53L1CB use to range objects depth and make 3D depth map module? As like VL53L5CX？

thanks again.
