I am using ST s API(VL53L0X TOF Sensor) and i have a doubt regarding the change in ranging modes at run time,For my application i want the sensor to work in HIGH ACCURACY mode first and after a time it has to work on FAST MODE and again back to HIGH ACCURACY mode.Is it possible ?? if yes how can i implement it on the application

Thank you

The only real difference between high-speed and high-accuracy is the timing budget.

Just try changing that, knowing the time will not take effect until the next range.

Technically you really should do a stop, change the timing budget and start again, but the kludge should work.
