STMicroelectronics P-NUCLEO-53L1A1 Evaluation Module

The STMicroelectronics VL53L1xx - NUCELO Board Time of Flight S 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 FlightSense™ technology. This technology allows absolute long-distance distance to be measured independently of target reflectance. Instead of estimating the distance by measuring the amount of light reflected from an object (which is significantly influenced by Colour and surface), the VL53L1X precisely measures the time the light takes to travel to the nearest object and reflect 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.
