DFRobot Gravity VL53L0X ToF distance sensor up to 2m

The Gravity VL53L0X distance sensor from DFRobot is a Time-of-Flight (ToF) distance module based on the VL53L0X from ST. The distance sensor has a range of up to 2 meters and a fast sampling rate of up to 50 Hz. The sensor is controlled via the I2C interface and has low power consumption. You can reconfigure the connection cable by plugging in a 10 cm male Dupont M-M cable, allowing you to use it with an Arduino UNO.

Features of the Gravity VL53L0X ToF Distance Sensor:

• I2C communication interface, module on/off control via IO pins
• Logic levels compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V
• Detailed user manual available in English
• Example programs for Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and STM32 available

Application examples for the Gravity VL53L0X ToF Distance Sensor:

• Mobile robots (fast distance measurement, obstacle detection, wall tracking)
• User detection for powering devices on/off and locking/unlocking devices such as PCs, laptops, and tablets
• Drones (landing assistance, hovering, ceiling detection)
• Smart buildings and lighting (person detection, 1D gesture recognition)
• Cameras (autofocus enhancement in low light conditions, video focus tracking assistance)
