To make sure that the sketch works properly, the latest versions of the **Arduino mbed Core** and the **VL53L1X library** needs to be installed. The **Arduino mbed Core** can be found in the **boards manager...** and the **VL53L1X library** can be found in the **Library manager**, both can be found inside the Arduino IDE.

If you are using version 1.6.2 or later of the Arduino software (IDE), you can use the Library Manager to install the VL53L1X library:
In the Arduino IDE, open the "Sketch" menu, select "Include Library", then "Manage Libraries...".
Search for "VL53L1X".
Click the VL53L1X entry in the list, authored by Pololu.

## Conclusion

In this tutorial we went through how to get readings from the ToF sensor. And how use these readings to change how the built-in LED behaves. At the end of the tutorial you can also find a reference list for the ToF library.
