STMicroelectronics support,I am testing a VL6180X laser sensor device for use in autonomous robotics.I currently get good distance measurements using an Arduino sketch but can't use that platform in my final product.Instead I'm using a pic18f46k22 mi...
Hello, I have a problem when I try to run the SPD code under STM32cube IDE, I have this under the serial monitor which remains stuck like this: SPD ULD SW Kit version 1.0.0Module type = VL53L8CXModule ID : 0000000000000000_VL53L8CBV0GC/1$2FW Version ...
I am using a pcb4188_vd66g1 camera module with a Raspberry Pi 5.The system has been freshly set up with Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit, and I followed the official setup guide step by step.After completing the setup:The camera is detected correctly when runn...
Hi everyone,I’m working with the VL53L0X sensor and I noticed that when it starts ranging, the supply voltage (of my board with the VL53L0X, the Vcc pin) drops from 3.389 V down to 2.544 V.In this setup, the VL53L0X is powered from the 3.3 V pin of a...
Hi,Currently, we are testing vl53l8cxv0gc/1 by placing an object in front and moving it and reading the values. Is there a way to test the functionality of vl53l8cxv0gc/1 in a production environment? Is there a self test mechanism for this sensor?Tha...
Hi, I'm trying the VL53L7CX sensor for a prototype and I'm trying the example codes provided within this page https://www.st.com/en/embedded-software/stsw-img036.html I'm experimenting the Example_10_motion_indicator and I'm able to display the "mot...
Hi everyone,I’m currently using the VL53L0X sensor to measure the liquid level inside a container, and I have a question regarding the offset calibration procedure described in the documentation.Is it really necessary to perform the offset calibratio...
Hello,I have been using the this ToF sensor along an ESP32-WROOM MCU for a while without major issues. My impementation of the i2c interface seems to be working well since in most simple ranging cases everything works well.However, recently, i have b...
On page 9 of https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/vl53l1x.pdf, it is written:"Ranging is continuous, with a programmable delay between two ranging operations (called anintermeasurement period)"This is wrong. It should be:"Ranging is continuous, w...
Hello ST Brightsense Team,Would like to know if the VD66GY Linux driver (STSW-IMG503_V4L2) will work on an NXP IMX8M Mini (no hardware ISP) ? If not will it work with the IMX8M Mini Plus (with Hardware ISP).Currently using the STEVAL-66GYMAI.In the ...
