VL53L1X ToF Laser Distance Sensor TOF400C

Distance sensor module based on the VL53L1X chip. It uses advanced Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology, which measures the flight time of a laser beam rather than the intensity of reflected light. This ensures stable and precise readings regardless of the color and type of the measured surface. The module makes it easy to build advanced measurement systems and is an excellent choice for Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, STM32, and Raspberry Pi.

Benefits

Using a sensor from the VL53L1X series brings a number of advantages in electronics projects. The most important strengths of this solution are listed below:

• High reading reliability thanks to the ToF architecture, completely independent of the reflectivity and color of the detected object.
• Hassle-free hardware integration due to the wide accepted supply voltage range of 3 V - 5 V.
• Easy configuration and communication via the two-wire I2C bus, supported by most popular microcontrollers.
• Option to modify the programmable measurement area (ROI), enabling precise adjustment of the chip’s field of view to the target operating environment.
• Very large operating range of up to 400 cm while maintaining the module’s compact physical dimensions.
