Time-of-Flight sensors

Unleash the potential of cutting-edge technology with STMicroelectronics' fifth-generation Flightsense™ Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensors. The lineup includes a range of direct ToF sensors, from single-zone to advanced multi-zone and 3D ToF options. Additionally, the portfolio features indirect Time-of-Flight (iToF) sensors available as die sensors.

STMicroelectronics is a global leader in Time-of-Flight technology, leveraging in-house SPAD, metasurface, and iToF pixel process manufacturing, as well as assembly and testing facilities.

ST's direct ToF sensors provide a comprehensive solution by integrating emitter, receiver, and processor into a single, compact system. Designed for seamless integration, these sensors offer a cost-effective, low-power solution with a minimal footprint, making them ideal for a broad range of modern applications.
