Can VL6180 work standalone without external MCU?
I would like to carry out a proximity detection to order an opening and I decided to use the VL6180 I would like to know if it can work in standalone? Thank you

we have chosen vl53l0x for our product. Before that we bought x nuculeo expansion board and tested(without cover glass),everything is working fine.But after placing cover glass , the sensor first gave measurement as 0mm always.
Then we tried to do calibration steps as per datasheet, but the offset we are getting is -25000(we placed the white object at 100mm) and cross talk is 0.SOC : nrf52840RTOS : ZephyrGITHUB link for driver : https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/hal_st...

Lidar interface and 2D scan
Hi,I wanted to interface a lidar with stm controller and see the 2 dimensional mapping in a graph may be similar to frame grabber. Does stm have any tools for the same ? like to get the graph of scanned environment by a lidar Thanks in advance!!!
Resolved! VL53L1x continuous ranging without clearing the interrupt.
Hi,I am using multiple (40) VL53L1x sensors. Is it possible to let the sensors continuously range and updating measurement results in the register without clearing the interrupt with the full-API function VL53L1_ClearInterruptAndStartMeasurement? In ...

Hello Everyone,I'm Using VL53L1 TOF sensor in Long Distance mode(4 Meter),But its showing error "VL53L1_RANGESTATUS_SIGNAL_FAIL " and Sometimes "VL53L1_RANGESTATUS_WRAP_TARGET_FAIL" Changed TB and InterMeasurement Period from 33 ms to 200 ms.but st...
Resolved! Why am I getting zero acceleration values from LSM6DS3 Eval Board (STEVAL-MKI160V1) ?
I am using LSM6DS3 Evaluation Board to get the acceleration and angular velocity data through I2C. I have powered up both Accel and Gyro by writing to the respective control registers and disabled the FIFO. But, when I read the data from Data Out reg...
