Review on CQRobot Ocean: VL53L1X ToF Sensor - Raspberry Pi/Arduino/STM32 Compatible, Long Distance Ranging for Robots, UAVs, Cameras, and Smart Homes by Wayne Girard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

good sensor Works well.

This sensor met all our expectations for VCSEL VL53L1X time-of-flight sensors. It was handy to have a plug-in harness so you don't have to solder directly to the board. Our application was with Raspberry Pi 4.

Pros
  • VL53L1X Long-range time-of-flight (ToF) sensor, accuracy 4 meters, measurement frequency 50 Hz. The VL53L1X uses ST's latest ToF technology, which combines physical infrared filters and optical components to be independent of the color and reflectivity of the target to provide distance measurement and interference immunity.
Cons
  • I don't remember
