Since we require long-distance detection, we have employed both Ranging Mode and Long Distance Mode. Additionally, due to the use of battery power, power saving is essential. Consequently, we acquire the distance reading after just two sampling cycles.
When the distance is less than 3 meters, we can successfully obtain readings without issue. However, when the distance exceeds 3 meters, acquiring a reading with only two sampling cycles becomes impossible. Instead, it requires 10 sampling cycles, or even several dozen cycles, to obtain a distance measurement. This significantly increases power consumption.
Why are multiple measurements required to detect objects beyond 3 meters? Can this be improved?
The software version we are using is STSW-IMG019: VL53L1CB_BareDriver_6.6.18.2652.
Thank you for your help.
