Hello all,I am confused on some test results that we performed while gauging the VL6180X's performance and am seeking some advice. We are testing various materials with the intention of using the best performing one for the target object in our appli...

Hello. I am seeking to perform a series of tests to demonstrate the effect of enabling/disabling the cross-talk compensation on the VL6180x ToF sensor. For some context, I'll be setting targets of different reflectance across different distances and ...

So from my understanding, after polling the sensor we can read directly from the RESULT__*** registers to reveal things such as distance, return rate, error code and such to view the results from the sensor range measurements. However, I've seen that...

Hello!So in the project I am working on, we are using ToF sensors (with a cover glass) to accurately measure the distance of a white object within the ranges of 30-70mm. We would like to create a calibration fixture that also falls within these dista...

When the sensor experiences steam exposure, and the sensor experiences under ranging, will the sensor output an error code related to the under ranging?

Are the sensors capable of detecting the condensation on the cover glass? In our application the lens cover COULD become full of condensation during normal operation. In that condition we would like to know whether our distance measurements are valid...

Do we have access to the temperature sensor inside the device? Could we potentially poll what the device's temperature is?

Hi Anne,Both of these sensors have already been calibrated using the recommended offset and cross-talk calibration methods and the the measurement read was taken from the "distance_true" register, which should include the offset and crosstalk compens...

Yea, I figured out my issue, and it was related to the I2C Dword read/write functoins. In my setup, I am using an I2C to Serial ftdi chip to communicate to the ToF sensors using my computer. Issue was that the driver was incorrectly setting the ACK b...
