Ocean: VL53L1X Time-of-Flight (ToF) Long Distance Ranging Sensor for Raspberry Pi, Arduino and STM32.

The VL53L1X is a third-generation FlightSense technology time-of-flight sensor that extends the TOF ranging length to 4 meters and the ranging frequency to 50 Hz. The VL53L1X uses ST's latest ToF technology, which integrates physical infrared filters and optical components to provide distance measurement and immunity to interference regardless of target color and reflectivity. The FlightSense sensor directly measures the distance between the object and the sensor based on the photon round-trip flight time. The measurement accuracy is not affected by the surface characteristics of the measured object, making the low-power high-precision ranging and proximity detection function suitable for a wider range of applications.
