Notes

Arduino Library [Python Driver] (placeholder)

malcolm-sparkfun commented 1 week ago

Initial python port is here: https://github.com/sparkfun/Qwiic_VL53L5CX_Py/tree/v1.0. Still in a rough state and unvalidated.

We are putting this on hold for now while we have a larger conversation about how to deal with devices that receive firmware pushes over I2C.

The Aruindo library for the VL53L5CX ToF Imager contains some huge buffers: https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_VL53L5CX_Arduino_Library/blob/main/src/vl53l5cx_buffers.h

They contain firmware, etc. They get used in their initialization routine: https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_VL53L5CX_Arduino_Library/blob/main/src/vl53l5cx_api.cpp#L297
