Description
How can I use multiple sensors of this type on the same raspberry pi? I can't use Breakout Garden because I have to position them in a specific way. I read about the change-address.py script. Do I have to use that to change address? And how do I connect both of them on the GPIO pins of the raspberry pi? Thank you

Research direction
Start by reviewing change-address.py and the issue's Raspberry Pi GPIO setup questions. Determine whether the existing script and library explain multi-sensor wiring and address changes, then document the required usage and connection steps so users can position multiple VL53L1X sensors independently.
