The ``tof10120`` sensor platform allows you to use TOF10120 optical time of flight sensor (`datasheet <https://github.com/simpleiot/reference/blob/master/sensors/TOF10120_english.pdf>`__)
|
|
with ESPHome to measure distances. The sensor works optically by emitting short infrared pulses
|
|
and measuring the time it takes the light to be reflected back.
|
|
|
|
The sensor can measure distances in range 10-180 centimeters, though that figure depends significantly
|
|
on several conditions like surface reflectance, field of view, temperature etc. .
|
|
|
|
The :ref:`I²C Bus <i2c>` is
|
|
required to be set up in your configuration for this sensor to work.
