SparkFun Qwiic ToF Imager - VL53L5CX

SparkFun Qwiic ToF Imager is a 64-pixel Time-of-Flight (ToF) 4-meter ranging sensor built around the VL53L5CX. The chip integrates a SPAD array, physical infrared filters, and diffractive optical elements (DOE). This achieves performance in various ambient lighting conditions with a range of cover glass materials. It utilizes the Qwiic system, so no soldering is required to connect to the rest of the system. There is also a broken-out 0.1"-spaced pins to use a breadboard.
