Light Ranger 4 click is an accurate distance measurement Click board based on a ToF (Time of Flight) measurement principle.
We provide a library for the LightRanger4 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Package can be downloaded/installed directly form compilers IDE(recommended way), or downloaded from our LibStock, or found on mikroE github account.
This library contains API for LightRanger4 Click driver.
void lightranger4_cfg_setup ( lightranger4_cfg_t *cfg );
LIGHTRANGER4_RETVAL lightranger4_init ( lightranger4_t *ctx, lightranger4_cfg_t *cfg );
void lightranger4_default_cfg ( lightranger4_t *ctx );
uint8_t lightranger4_new_data_ready ( lightranger4_t *ctx );
uint16_t lightranger4_get_distance ( lightranger4_t *ctx );
void lightranger4_power_on ( lightranger4_t *ctx );
Demo application is used to shows basic controls LightRanger 4 click
The demo application is composed of two sections :
Configuring clicks and log objects. Settings the click in the default configuration, adjusts the LONG mode (distance measurement up to 4 meters), sets the time budget and start measurement with the adjustment of inter measurements period.
Reads the distance of the object in front of the sensor and logs distance to USBUART every 500 ms.
The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly form compilers IDE(recommneded) or found on LibStock page or mikroE GitHub accaunt.
Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:
Additional notes and informations
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
