This is an implementation of ST's STSW-IMG007 VL53L1X API for the Arduino platform, for use with the Pololu VL53L1X time-of-flight distance sensor carrier. It includes an example sketch adapted from ST's X-CUBE-53L1A1.
To load the sketch, open the file vl53l1x-st-api.ino in the vl53l1x-st-api directory.
We have also released a more basic VL53L1X library for Arduino that is intended to provide a quicker and easier way to get started using the VL53L1X with an Arduino-compatible controller, in contrast to using this API from ST. The library has a more streamlined interface, as well as smaller storage and memory footprints. However, it does not currently implement some of the more advanced functionality available in the API (for example, calibrating the sensor to work well under a cover glass or selecting a smaller region of interest (ROI)), and it has less robust error checking.
