The P-NUCLEO-53L7A1 is a complete evaluation kit that allows you to learn, evaluate, and develop applications using the VL53L7CX Time-of-Flight 8×8 multizone ranging sensor with 90° FoV.
The VL53L7CH artificial enabler Time-of-Flight sensor is also supported by the X-NUCLEO-53L7A1.
Specifically designed for applications that require an ultrawide FoV, the VL53L7CX Time-of-Flight sensor offers a 90° diagonal FoV.
Based on ST FlightSense technology, the VL53L7CX incorporates an efficient metasurface lens (DOE) placed on the laser emitter, enabling the projection of a 60° x 60° square FoV onto the scene.
Its multizone capability provides a matrix of 8×8 zones (64 zones) and can work at fast speeds (60 Hz) up to 350 cm.
Thanks to the autonomous mode with programmable distance threshold combined with the ultrawide FoV, the VL53L7CX is perfect for any application requiring low-power user detection.
ST patented algorithms and innovative module construction allow the VL53L7CX to detect, in each zone, multiple objects within the FoV with depth understanding.
ST histogram algorithms ensure cover glass crosstalk immunity beyond 60 cm.
Derived from the VL53L7CX, the pinouts and drivers of both sensors are compatible, ensuring a simple migration from one sensor to the other.
Like all Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensors based on ST FlightSense technology, the VL53L7CX records, in each zone, an absolute distance regardless of the target color and reflectance.
The NUCLEO-F401RE STM32 Nucleo development board 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.
