The Waveshare VL53L1X ToF Distance Ranging Sensor is a module based on the VL53L1X from ST, offering accurate ranging up to 4m and a fast ranging frequency up to 50 Hz. It is controlled through an I2C interface and has low power consumption.
Compared to the VL53L0X, the VL53L1X extends the ToF ranging distance up to 4m and features a fast ranging frequency up to 50 Hz. It integrates physical infrared filters and optics, using ST's latest ToF technology for absolute distance measurement regardless of target color and reflectance, providing better anti-interference capability.
Applications include mobile robots, user detection for device power control, drones, smart building and lighting, and camera enhancements.
