Time-of-flight sensors measure objects down to 2.5 cm

STMicroelectronics has extended the capabilities of its FlightSense ToF ranging sensors by introducing the VL53L3CX with patented histogram algorithms that allow measuring distances to multiple objects as well as increasing accuracy. The VL53L3CX measures object ranges from 2.5cm to 3m, unaffected by the target color or reflectance, unlike conventional infrared sensors. This allows designers to introduce […] The post Time-of-flight sensors measure objects down to 2.5 cm appeared first on Elect...
