VL53L0X TOF Based LIDAR Laser Distance Sensor

If you want to detect Obstacles with your drones then the VL53L0X TOF-based Distance Laser Lidar/ rangefinder is a quite good solution. No matter If you are a newbie, you can learn more things about this distance sensor.

The VL53L0X is a new generation Time-of-Flight (ToF) laser-ranging module housed in the smallest package on the market today, providing accurate distance measurement whatever the target reflectances, unlike conventional technologies. It can measure absolute distances up to 2m, setting a new benchmark in ranging performance levels, opening the door to various new applications.

The VL53L0X integrates a leading-edge SPAD array (Single Photon Avalanche Diodes) and embeds ST’s second-generation Flight Sense TM patented technology. The VL53L0X’s 940 nm VCSEL emitter (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser), is totally invisible to the human eye, coupled with internal physical infrared filters, enabling longer-ranging distances, higher immunity to ambient light,
