• Description:
In this video tutorial I show you how to build a simple distance measurement device. The project is based around the VL53L0X, the proclaimed "world's smallest Time-of-Flight (ToF) ranging sensor" (st.com/en/imaging-and-photonics-solutions/vl53l0x.html). As usual, I go over the hardware assembly process, as well as the software needed for the project. Instead of using the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth capabilities of the ESP32, I print out the measurements to a 64x48 pixel OLED screen.
