@Lyr3x based on your work i managed to convert this (the 1.0 version) into a working esphome configuration: https://github.com/diplix/esphome-configuration

i’m using two of these and they’ve been working quite reliably for a couple oof weeks now. one esp8266 tof-sensor is combined with a door sensor, the other one also reuses measured values for some kind oof lichtschranke to act before a count is registered. OTA updates are working (thanks to esphome) and on the fly calibartion should be doable as well.

Awesome work! Due to my master Thesis I have no time at all at the moment... I would love too see and check your work!

Are you interested in open a PR which includes the esphome stuff?

iff you want to test my configuration you could (after installing esphome and checking/configuring the platform in tof_sensor.yaml) just run esphome tof_sensor.yaml compile to see if it compiles and esphome tof_sensor.yaml run to compile and upload on a esp8266 or esp32.
