    Works as designed
  

*by D***P on Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024*

I used this as a help to park my car in the garage. This accurately and quickly responds to the distance of the car.

    It works great, though it appears to be a little cheap
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2018*

It works great, though it appears to be a little cheap. I use it to build a laser scanner based on arduino. I'm prretty happy with it since it's sooo inexpensive. It is only 40 dollars, while Lidar Lite v3 is 150+ and other lidar is 400+ or even 1000+. Of course it's not as precise as those expensive lidar, but it is really cost efficient.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Works with a ESP32
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2018*

This will be my 2nd TFMiniPlus. I did not remove the protective film on the first one. The first one got hot and would not function.2nd TFMiniPlus arrived, first time removed the protective film. The TFMiniPlus uses 5V but puts out 3.3V TTL for a direct connection to a ESP32.Single Trigger is easy to do.
