Laser rangefinder VL53L1X

Buy laser range finder VL53L1X for quadcopter

The online store COPTERPARTS.RU offers a huge range of various components for drones. For more efficient operation of the quadcopter, we suggest purchasing a VL53L1X laser rangefinder. This device will provide the most accurate detection of obstacles at a distance of up to 4 meters. It is based on a Time-of-Flight sensor. Thanks to this, it works based on the transit time of infrared pulses, which guarantees an accurate result regardless of the surface, shape, color and other factors of the target.

Range measurements are available via the sensor's I²C (TWI) interface, which is also used to configure device parameters. With ROI, you can customize areas of interest, reduce the field of view, or divide into zones. The device is easy to use and install. The body is compact and lightweight, it does not take up much space and does not weigh down the drone.

Special attention should be paid to the operating temperatures of the device, which range from -20 C to 80 ° C. Work even in extreme conditions and do not worry about the failure of this rangefinder.

Features of using the device

As noted earlier, the maximum operating distance is 4 meters. But it is important to consider that it is influenced by various external conditions, such as lighting. In short distance mode, the range is typically 1.3 – 2 meters. You can expand your obstacle detection capabilities by switching to Autonomous Low Consumption mode.
