The VL53L3CX is the latest Time-of-Flight (ToF) product from STMicroelectronics and embeds ST’s third-generation FlightSense technology. With the improved detection accuracy, the sensor features a 25~3000mm sensing range, automatic smudge correction, and glass cross-talk immunity. With special algorithms and ingenious module construction, the VL53L3CX is also able to detect different objects within the field of view (FoV) with depth understanding.
Note 1: The product has only been verified on M0 and ESP32 due to the large size of its algorithm files.
Note 2: Multi-target distance measurement can only be triggered under certain conditions. Please refer to their official Web for more details.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- ESP32
- ESP32 is a family of low-cost microcontroller chips and modules from Espressif with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth. They support programmable firmware and over-the-air updates, and are commonly programmed with toolchains such as the Arduino core and ESP-IDF.
- I2C address
- An I2C address is the number a device uses so a microcontroller can tell it apart from other devices on the same I2C bus. It matters because two devices with the same fixed address may conflict if used together.
