Hi Team,

We have our customized projector majorly focused on educational field purpose.

Its a short through projector with 16:9 aspect ratio.

We are planning to implement Auto keystone and Auto Focus using VL53L5CX TOF sensor.

Do you have any driver support for this particular implementation.??

Any Knowledge article related to this implementation??

Thanks & Regards

Deep_Bang -

We have a team in Asia that supports our projector business.

In theory you do not have to do much, although I would suggest using the VL53L8. (Better sensor, same price.)

You are going to get either an 8x8 group of distances or a 4x4 group.

If you point the sensor perpendicular to a flat wall all the numbers will be very close to each other.

Tilt it up and the distances on the top numbers will be more than the bottom row.

From there it's just geometry. Although I'm sure our team will do a better job of describing it.
