Description
This 7Semi Distance Sensor Breakout utilizes the VL53L1X next generation ToF (Time of Flight) sensor module. The VL53L1X is a state-of-the-art, Time-of-Flight (ToF), laser-ranging sensor, enhancing the ST FlightSense product family. It is the fastest miniature ToF sensor on the market with accurate ranging up to 4 m and fast ranging frequency up to 50 Hz VL53L1X_web.jpgHoused in a miniature and reflowable package, it integrates a SPAD receiving array, a 940 nm invisible Class1 laser emitter, physical infrared filters, and optics to achieve the best ranging performance in various ambient lighting conditions with a range of cover window options. Unlike conventional IR sensors, the VL53L1X uses ST’s latest generation ToF technology which allows absolute distance measurement whatever the target color and reflectance.
The I2C address of the VL53L1X is 0x29 and is hardware defined. A multiplexer/Mux is required to communicate to multiple VL53L1X sensors on a single bus. If you need to use more than one VL53L1X sensor.
The ToF Distance Sensor Breakout with I2C communication interface is an advanced sensing device designed to measure the distance between objects with high accuracy and reliability. The sensor uses a laser to emit light pulses and calculates the time taken for the pulses to reflect back from the object to determine the distance. The VL53L1X technology used in this sensor provides an accurate measurement range of up to 4 meters, making it ideal for applications such as robotics, drones, and autonomous vehicles.
The I2C communication interface used in this sensor enables it to communicate with other devices, such as microcontrollers or computers, to transmit the distance readings. This feature allows for real-time monitoring and data logging of the distance measurements, which is useful in a wide range of applications. The breakout board design of the sensor makes it easy to integrate with other systems and devices, and it can be used with a variety of microcontrollers and single-board computers.
The VL53L1X technology used in this sensor is a highly reliable and accurate time-of-flight ranging technology. It uses a single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array and a histogram processing engine to provide accurate distance measurements. The sensor has a resolution of 1 mm and a measurement accuracy of +- 5%, ensuring that the readings are always precise and reliable.
With the ToF Distance Sensor Breakout, you can take your project to the next level with precise and reliable distance measurements. Whether you're working on a robotics project, developing an autonomous vehicle, or building a drone, this sensor is an essential tool that can help you achieve your goals.
