TOF sensor with nios......How?

Hi Mark,

Which TOF sensor you are using? is it an I2C sensor?

Hi,

I am using vl53l0x which is an I2C sensor. it is working fine with the ARDUINO. please help to teach me how to use it with the FPGA.

Hi,

You can use the I2C Intel IP to communicate with the I2C sensor.

I encourage you to see the following Example:

or to use Opencores IP as used here:

Thanks a lot @AhmedH_Intel​

I think this help to start my business.

I see that I can use the DMA with the sensor, correct?

Yes, you can use the DMA to stream the sensor data for example or to update a memory with the sensor data.

Regards,

Thanks a lot, I will check the DMA.

You are welcome.
