CircuitPython module for interacting with the VL53L1X distance sensor.
Project description
Introduction
CircuitPython module for interacting with the VL53L1X distance sensor.
Dependencies
This driver depends on:
Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle or individual libraries can be installed using circup.
Adafruit VL53L1X Time of Flight Distance Sensor - ~30 to 4000mm - STEMMA QT / Qwiic
Installing from PyPI
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-vl53l1xTo install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-vl53l1xTo install in a virtual environment in your current project:
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-vl53l1xInstalling to a Connected CircuitPython Device with Circup
Make sure that you have circup installed in your Python environment. Install it with the following command if necessary:
pip3 install circupWith circup installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the following command to install:
circup install vl53l1xOr the following command to update an existing version:
circup updateUsage Example
See examples/vl53l1x_simpletest.py for basic usage example.
