Measure distances from 1mm to 1300mm with accuracy, even in challenging ambient light conditions, using the VL53L4ED
Proximity 21 Click is a compact add-on board designed for accurate proximity sensing and short-range distance measurements. Powered by the VL53L4ED Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor from STMicroelectronics, it offers exceptional performance and reliability.
KEY FEATURES:
- Click Snap: Unique Click Snap feature allows for flexible mounting and easy integration into development boards
- High-precision distance measurement: Measures distances from 1mm to 1300mm with accuracy, even in challenging ambient light conditions
- Wide Field of View (FoV): Covers a 18° FoV for effective object detection
- Extended temperature range: Operates reliably in temperatures from -10°C to +85°C
- I2C communication: Uses a standard I2C interface for easy communication and configuration with the host MCU
APPLICATIONS:
- Monitor object proximity for various industrial automation processes
- Detect intruders or unauthorized access in security systems
- Enable precise navigation and obstacle avoidance in robotics
- Control lighting based on proximity for energy efficiency in smart lighting systems
- Measure distance for applications like facial recognition or gesture control in biometric measurements

ABOUT CLICK BOARDS™
Click boards™ follow a modular prototyping add-on board standard invented by MIKROE, which revolutionizes the way users add new functionalities to development boards. Click boards™ enable design engineers to change peripherals easily, cutting months off development time. To enable hundreds of Click boards to be connected to the microcontroller or microprocessor, we have invented socket standard - mikroBUS™. This uniform connection interface allows you to connect any Click boards to a main board instantly. The company releases a new Click boards nearly every day at 10am, and many leading microcontroller companies including Microchip, NXP, Infineon, Dialog, STM, Analog Devices, Renesas and Toshiba now include the mikroBUS™ socket on their development boards.
ABOUT MIKROE
MIKROE is committed to changing the embedded electronics industry through the use of time-saving industry-standard hardware and software solutions. With unique concepts like Remote Access, One New Product/Day, Multi-Architectural IDE and most recently, the EmbeddedWiki™ platform with more than million ready-for-use projects, MIKROE combines its dev boards, compilers, smart displays, programmers/debuggers and 1600+ Click peripheral boards to dramatically cut development time. mikroBUS™; mikroSDK™; SiBRAIN™ and DISCON™ are open standards and mikroBUS only has been adopted by over 100 leading microcontroller companies and integrated on their development boards.
