Adafruit VL6180X Time‑of‑Flight Distance Ranging Sensor single/double coil)Adafruit VL6180X TimeofFlight Distance Ranging Sensor The VL6180X is a compact, precise distance sensor that measures how close an object is by timing how long a tiny integrated laser pulse takes to bounce back. Unlike ultrasonic sensors, which measure over a wide cone, the VL6180X uses a very narrow spot, so its excellent for precisely detecting the distance to the surface directly in front of itideal for gesturelike sensing, shortrange obstacle
