Description
The P-NUCLEO-53L1A1 is a complete evaluation
kit allowing anyone to learn, evaluate, and
develop their application using the VL53L1X ToF,
long-distance ranging sensor technology.
The VL53L1X is the latest product based on ST’s
patented FlightSenseTM technology. This is a
ground-breaking technology allowing absolute
long-distance distance to be measured
independently of target reflectance. Instead of
estimating the distance by measuring the amount
of light reflected back from an object (which is
significantly influenced by color and surface), the
VL53L1X precisely measures the time the light
takes to travel to the nearest object and reflect
back to the sensor (Time-of-Flight).
The STM32 nucleo board, NUCLEO-F401RE,
provides an affordable and flexible way for users
to try out new ideas and build prototypes with any
STM32 microcontroller, choosing from the various
combinations of performance, power
consumption, and features.
