Intro
This time-of-flight sensor is a laser distance sensor, that emits a 940nm laser. It can measure distance up to 125cm quite accurate. Adafruit delivers a ready-to-use library and a functional example you should try.Wiring
The sensor is connected via I2C. So you have to use pin 4 and 5 on the Arduino Uno/Nano (other Arduinos may have different pins for I2C). It works with 3.3 volts. But since the breakoutboard has a voltage regulator implemented, you can connect it also to 5 volt.

You can find it on eBay, if you search for "Time of flight"
Or directly from Amazon: Time of flight
Arduino Nano
what is the minimum accurate distance it can measure
ReplyDeleteI read that Post and got it fine and informative. entfernungsrechner
ReplyDeleteThese are a little over $3 US from Aliexpress. Search for Time Of Flight sensors. It isn't found if you search for the part number.
