I'm using the VL53LX API 1.2.8 to interface with the VL53L4CD in firmware and I implemented a tuner page in my android app to visualize it.So far I have this thing ranging pretty well with +/- 1mm accuracy. Not bad!I'm measuring a permanent grey 3D p...

I'm using the latest API version (1.2.8) available from the VL53L4CX product page.In my project I have implemented an interface to set configurations or run calibrations.I am also using this driver for both the VL53L4CD and VL53L4CX, since the driver...

Thanks, I've been working on this thing for a year now.Unfortunately, I have no control over the sensor temperature in this project.Is the VHV doing the same thing as the VL53L4CD_StartTemperatureUpdate() function in the low power driver or how do th...

20mm seems really high. I would think +/-10 would be the absolute maximums which is probably a stretch as well.The offset cal works by setting an object with a flat face in front of each sensor at a known distance. Then use VL6180x_SetOffsetCalibrati...

I'm not an expert at these sensors as I'm figuring them out myself. Calibrating them will help, but I did read somewhere that the V6180X's have around +/-4mm deviation.I know that even with a calibration there can be offset due to temperature as you ...

Have you tried using the VL6180x_SetOffsetCalibrationData() function?You should always calibrate the sensors before ranging.

I'm glad I could help and thank you for clarifying how the distance mode works. I have the VL53L4CD working well in my project but I was just curious about that function.Andrew
