People Counter with the VL53L1X

Sensors Distance
1

Hi, i’d like some help,

I’m trying to build the replica of ST example People Counter with the VL53L1X ToF sensor.

I’d like to connect that sensor to a Wifi Board, program it with arduino/vscode to further send data to Azure services.

Do you know any board i can use for this? Nano, Esp … ?

Thank you

You could use either but you might want to stick to something familiar to make it easier to adapt any code you might need to modify.

Like a ESP8266 and then send the data through MQTT to azure?

Or any other WiFi enabled board you have some experience with.
