Time-of-Flight Distance Unit (VL53L1X)
The ToF4M Unit is a distance sensor that has Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology with the VL53L1CXV0FY/1 sensor. It measures from 4cm to 400cm and is used in areas such as robotics, autonomous vehicles, drones, and security systems.
It can provide measurements as precise as 0.1mm, allowing for detailed object surface analysis and distance detection. It also has a quick response time, delivering measurements within milliseconds, which is useful for projects requiring fast data processing. For communication, the ToF4M Unit uses the I2C protocol. This protocol provides easy connectivity and supports setups like multi-master and multi-slave configurations, providing system reliability.
Features
- High accuracy: ToF4M Unit has a very high accuracy, up to 0.1 mm. The measuring distance is about 4 meters.
- Fast response time: The ToF4M Unit has a fast response time and can complete a measurement in milliseconds.
- Multi-field applications: robots, autonomous vehicles, drones, security and other fields. Tasks such as measuring the height, presence, and movement of objects demonstrate its versatility.
- Long life: The service life of the ToF4M Unit can reach 1 million hours.
- Programming platform: Arduino, UIFlow, etc.
