VL53L0X: Time Of Flight sensor
|
|
##############################
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
********
|
|
This sample periodically measures distance between vl53l0x sensor
|
|
and target. The result is displayed on the console.
|
|
It also shows how we can use the vl53l0x as a proximity sensor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
************
|
|
|
|
This sample uses the VL53L0X sensor controlled using the I2C interface.

Building and Running
|
|
********************
|
|
|
|
This project outputs sensor data to the console. It requires a VL53L0X
|
|
sensor, which is present on the disco_l475_iot1 board.
|
|
