ToF Range Finder Sensor Breakout Board w/ Voltage Regulator - VL53L1X
Description
- Carrier/breakout board for ST’s VL53L1X laser-ranging sensor
- Integrated 940 nm Class 1 laser
- Resolution: 1 mm / Range: 4-400 cm
- Features a programmable region of interest (ROI) and a 2.8 V linear regulator
The ToF Range Finder Sensor Breakout Board w/ Voltage Regulator - VL53L1X is a carrier/breakout board for ST’s VL53L1X laser-ranging sensor, which offers fast and accurate ranging up to 4 m. It uses the time of flight (ToF) of invisible, eye-safe laser pulses to measure absolute distances independent of ambient lighting conditions and target characteristics like color, shape, and texture (though these things will affect the maximum range).

The VL53L1X also features a programmable region of interest (ROI), so the full field of view can be reduced or divided into multiple zones. Distance measurements can be read through a digital I²C interface. The board includes a 2.8 V linear regulator and level-shifters that allow it to work over an input voltage range of 2.6 V to 5.5 V, and the 0.1″ pin spacing makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1″ perfboards.

Comme d'habitude, je suis satisfait du service Robotshop et de la livraison rapide. En ce qui concerne le capteur laser ToF lui-même, il n'a pas répondu à mes attentes et a dû opter pour une autre solution. La différence de mesure linéaire de 2 cm ne me dérangeait pas vraiment, cela peut être facilement corrigé dans le croquis Arduino (ou calibrer le capteur). Cependant, les résultats ne sont pas fiables. Ne vous méprenez pas, dans le même environnement soigneusement réglé, en veillant à avoir les conditions d'éclairage optimales / réflecteurs / distance / angles des objets, etc., en fonction des limitations du capteur, cela pourrait fonctionner (?). Mais sinon, le capteur est trop sensible aux reflets, autres lumières, angles ... Après avoir tenté de nombreux environnements de test, le mieux que j'ai pu obtenir était une fiabilité de 85%, ce qui n'est pas suffisant pour mes besoins. Des tests ont été réalisés pour des distances comprises entre 6 et 20 centimètres. C'est dommage, car un capteur laser devrait certainement pouvoir atteindre un taux de fiabilité bien meilleur. C'est un problème de conception et l'algorithme interne du micrologiciel doit être retravaillé. IMHO, de couse.
The sensor gives nonsense data when there isn't an object detected in it's range. So you have to filter that data out, which is really just a minor nuisance. Other than that it is awesome. Fast, accurate and repeatable.
Le capteur donne des données absurdes lorsqu'il n'y a pas d'objet détecté dans sa portée. Vous devez donc filtrer ces données, ce qui n'est vraiment qu'une nuisance mineure. A part ça, c'est génial. Rapide, précis et reproductible.
Performs as well as the $30+ equivalents. Can be impacted by daylight (though very good compared to IR sensors) and any smudges on the sensor itself
Effectue aussi bien que l'équivalent de 30 $ +. Peut être affecté par la lumière du jour (bien que très bon comparé aux capteurs infrarouges) et par des taches sur le capteur lui-même

Return Conditions
To qualify for a refund under the 30-day return policy, all of the following conditions must be met:
- A valid Return Authorization (RA) number must be obtained prior to returning the product. Returns without an RA number will be refused.
- The RA number is valid for 30 days. The returned item must be received within that period.
- The RA number must be included with the return.
- Products must be returned in unused, unmodified condition (e.g., no scratches, alterations, missing parts, or signs of installation/use) and in their original packaging, suitable for resale.
- Shipping fees are non-refundable. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, except in cases of a product confirmed defective through RobotShop's troubleshooting process or of a verified shipping error by RobotShop.
- Refunds are processed within 7 days after receipt and inspection of the returned item.
- A $100 cleaning fee may apply to domestic robots returned in used or unclean condition.
- A 20% restocking fee may apply to large-quantity returns of items ordered specifically for the customer from the manufacturer or not part of RobotShop's standard inventory.
Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
- Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
- Consumables — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tires, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
- Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
