.. currentmodule:: zsensor
:mod:`zsensor` --- Zephyr sensor bindings
=========================================
.. module:: zsensor
:synopsis: zephyr sensor bindings
The ``zsensor`` module contains a class for using sensors with Zephyr.
.. _zsensor.Sensor:
class Sensor --- sensor control for the Zephyr port
---------------------------------------------------
Use this class to access data from sensors on your board.
See Zephyr documentation for sensor usage here: `Sensors
<https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/reference/peripherals/sensor.html?highlight=sensor#sensors>`_.
Sensors are defined in the Zephyr devicetree for each board. The quantities that a given sensor can
measure are called a sensor channels. Sensors can have multiple channels to represent different axes
of one property or different properties a sensor can measure. See `Channels`_ below for defined sensor
channels.
Constructor
~~~~~~~~~~~
.. class:: Sensor(device_name)
Device names are defined in the devicetree for your board.
For example, the device name for the accelerometer in the FRDM-k64f board is "FXOS8700".
Methods
~~~~~~~
.. method:: Sensor.measure()
Obtains a measurement sample from the sensor device using Zephyr sensor_sample_fetch and
stores it in an internal driver buffer as a useful value, a pair of (integer part of value,
fractional part of value in 1-millionths).
Returns none if successful or OSError value if failure.
.. method:: Sensor.get_float(sensor_channel)
Returns the value of the sensor measurement sample as a float.
.. method:: Sensor.get_micros(sensor_channel)
Returns the value of the sensor measurement sample in millionths.
(Ex. value of ``(1, 500000)`` returns as ``1500000``)
.. method:: Sensor.get_millis(sensor_channel)
Returns the value of sensor measurement sample in thousandths.
(Ex. value of ``(1, 500000)`` returns as ``1500``)
.. method:: Sensor.get_int(sensor_channel)
Returns only the integer value of the measurement sample.
(Ex. value of ``(1, 500000)`` returns as ``1``)
