CounterFit Shims - VL53L0X distance sensor

RPI_VL53L0X Shim PyPI

Shims for the Rpi-VL53L0X distance sensor.

See the Rpi-VL53L0X Docs for the API documentation.

Getting started

To use these shims, you will need to install CounterFit and have it running, with the appropriate hardware created.

  • Install this package from pip:

    pip install telegen-shims-rpi-vl53l0x
    
  • Import VL53L0X using the counterfit_shims_rpi-vl53l0x package instead of the rpi-vl53l0x package, as well as importing the TeleGenConnection from the counterfit_connection module:

    from counterfit_connection import TeleGenConnection
    from counterfit_shims_rpi_vl53l0x.vl53l0x import VL53L0X
    
  • Configure the connection to the CounterFit app. Change the hostname and port to where you are running it:

    TeleGenConnection.init('127.0.0.1', 5000)
    
  • Write your VL53L0X code as usual, setting the I2C address to match the one you set in the CounterFit app.

    For example, create a distance sensor on port 0x29:

    distance_sensor = VL53L0X(0x29)
