Product Description
Product Description
The Gravity: 8x8 Matrix ToF 3D Distance Sensor (I2C&UART, 3.5m Range, 60° FOV) SEN0628 from DFRobot is a time-of-flight distance sensor module for short- to mid-range 3D depth sensing. It outputs a real-time 8×8 measurement matrix with 64 distance points, providing broader spatial information than a single-point ranging sensor. With a 60° field of view and a maximum detection range of up to 3.5 m, the module is suitable for applications that need to distinguish obstacles, open paths, or edges in space.
Signal processing is handled on the module, which reduces integration effort for microcontroller and single-board computer platforms. The module supports both I2C and UART communication and is designed for use within the Gravity ecosystem. This makes it suitable for prototyping as well as compact embedded systems with limited processing resources.
Technical Features
- Time-of-flight distance sensor module with 8×8 matrix and 64 measurement points
- 3D depth sensing with up to 3.5 m detection range
- 60° field of view for area-based distance information
- Digital interfaces: I2C and UART
- Onboard processing for real-time depth data output
- Compatible with Arduino, micro:bit, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, LattePanda, and UNIHIKER K10
- Suitable for compact systems with low power requirements
Application Areas
Typical use cases include obstacle detection and navigation support in robotics, contactless gesture recognition, interactive installations, and smart automation systems. Because it measures a matrix rather than a single point, the module can capture coarse spatial structures such as edges, openings, or free paths. This makes it suitable for autonomous or assistive functions where a basic ranging sensor is insufficient but a full depth camera would be unnecessarily complex.
