Hello,I'm using the VL53L1CB sensor to detect objects from a long distance. Unfortunately, I can't always guarantee ideal working conditions. Sometimes, there are objects (structural elements) within the detection area that cannot be removed. Their p...

There are three modes: LONG, MEDIUM, and SHORT. The names suggest that LONG allows measuring the greatest distances. In document UM2923 (section 5.2), there is information that the maximum distance can be achieved with the MEDIUM setting. What settin...

Now I'm using the VL53L1CB and it really works better. Do your range mode selection tips also apply to this sensor? I ask because I'm now monitoring an additional parameter: RecommendedDistanceMode, and sometimes it suggests a LONG setting.

You're right, and that's clear to me.I'm referring to a situation where the sensor has certain elements within its field of view that are fixed. Objects move around these elements, and I want to detect these objects. I was thinking about a calibratio...

Indeed, the L1 has a larger lens, and I was contemplating using it. However, the documentation does not clearly specify the maximum range, whereas for the L4, it is explicitly stated as 'up to 6 meters.' That's why I chose L4. Now, I will conduct tes...

I would like to improve the detection of objects with low light reflectance. I was wondering if the power is adjustable, and perhaps the default value is not the maximum available. If the power cannot be increased for safety reasons - ok (safety firs...

Thank you, now I understand. Since we're talking about an extended range - I have an additional question: Can the power or any other parameter be increased to detect dark objects at a greater distance?
