mc_experiments_week-1:

started working with the lidar sensor — vl53ldk. couldn’t find official datasheet; adafruit vl53x library just works.

#include "Adafruit_VL53L0X.h"
 
Adafruit_VL53L0X lox = Adafruit_VL53L0X();
 
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
 
  // wait until serial port opens for native USB devices
  while (!Serial) {
    delay(1);
  }
 
  Serial.println("Adafruit VL53L0X test.");
  if (!lox.begin()) {
    Serial.println(F("Failed to boot VL53L0X"));
    while (1)
      ;
  }
  // power
  Serial.println(F("VL53L0X API Continuous Ranging example\n\n"));
 
  // start continuous ranging
  lox.startRangeContinuous();
 
  pinMode(12, OUTPUT);
}
 
void loop() {
  if (lox.isRangeComplete()) {
    Serial.print("Distance in mm: ");
    Serial.println(lox.readRange());
  }
  int val = map(lox.readRange(), 40, 8190, 500, 2000);
 
  tone(12, val, 10);
}
