19218-SparkFun_Qwiic_Mini_dToF_Imager_-_TMF8820-01-1

The SparkFun Qwiic TMF8820 dToF Imager (also available in a Qwiic Mini Breakout footprint) lets your projects detect distances up to 5000mm (or 16.4ft.) using direct time-of-flight technology, even in challenging lighting conditions. Whether you're building collision-avoidance systems for robotics or presence-detection networks, this Qwiic-enabled breakout simplifies the math by processing histogram data on the chip and sending the results over I2C to your microcontroller.

Like the TMF8820 versions above, the SparkFun Qwiic TMF8821 dToF Imager (also available in a Qwiic Mini Breakout footprint) offers the same highly detailed 3D distance tracking up to 5000mm, but adds a configurable multi-zone direct time-of-flight sensor to map obstacles and detect presence, even in bright sunlight.

18009-Garmin_LIDAR-Lite_v4_LED_-_Distance_Measurement_Sensor__Qwiic_-01-2

The LIDAR-Lite v4 Qwiic combines Garmin’s high-performance optical ranging technology with the ease of the SparkFun Qwiic ecosystem. This board uses the powerful v4 LED sensor, which supports 10-meter ranging and wireless ANT communication, and includes a breakout board that handles all power and logic translation. It is the ultimate "plug-and-play" distance solution for anyone who wants to incorporate a LIDAR-Lite sensor into their project!
