Gravity I2C UART 3.5m ToF Sensor 64 Pixel 60° FOV

The DFRobot 8x8 Matrix ToF 3D Distance Sensor is a compact time-of-flight solution for three-dimensional depth measurement, bridging the gap between simple single-point distance sensors and complex depth cameras. The sensor captures real-time depth data at 64 measurement points in an 8×8 matrix within a 60° field of view at a maximum range of 3.5 meters. Communication is possible via I2C, UART, or USB Type-C, with four switchable I2C addresses allowing cascading of up to four sensors. The open design with an integrated RP2040 processor allows for loading custom firmware or lightweight machine learning models.
