Hi,

What is the driver are using ? Actually we do have two version of the driver for the VL53L1X, stsw-img007 and stsw-img009. The 009 has only 2 distance modes, We did not implement the medium mode in this driver because there is no any benefit. The short mode has better ambient immunity but the max distance measurable is shorter while the long distance mode has a longer max distance measurable but less performant in ambient light.

Thanks

Julien

Hi,

The driver I am using is STSW-IMG010.

As we are using VL53L1X, we want to test the sensor in medium mode. Can you suggest driver that contains all the features (3 Distance modes, Interrupt), so that it will be useful for our project

Thanks,

Gayathri
