ESPHome VL53L1X presence sensor

Goal:

The goal of this project is to detect the presence of people in a room and also count how many there are present in the room. To, eventually, with that information toggle the state of the light(s) and do other automation 'stuff'.

Pathway and logbook:

Description Expected date Actual date ☒ /
Result commentary
Delivery of the VL53L1X time of flight sensors February 9 - 10 February 10
Checking if hardware is nondefective February 10 February 10 The I2C-device address differed from the SparkFun and Polulu boards. This meant that the address was needed to be set before the initalisation of the sensor. (0x29)
Dry testing using Andrea Fox's Arduino IDE sketch February 10 February 10
