Here we have the guys from Gilisymo demonstrating their LS53L0X board, a miniature proximity sensor.  Gilisymo explain their concept whereby they have created an autonomous system based on an STM32 microcontroller (STM32F030), time-of-flight sensor(VL53L0X) and bluetooth communications module and which only needs two batteries to be fully autonomous.  They have a patented design whereby they link up multiple sensors and designate one master which then manages the chain and communicates the data being gathered by each individual sensor.  This enables the user to control up to 125 sensors through just one master!
