Struct Sensor 

pub struct Sensor<'d> { /* private fields */ }

Accelerometer and magnetometer chip present on the microbit

Implementations

impl<'d> Sensor<'d>

pub async fn new( twispi0: Peri<'static, TWISPI0>, irq: impl Binding<TWISPI0, InterruptHandler<TWISPI0>> + 'd, sda: Peri<'static, P0_16>, scl: Peri<'static, P0_08>, ) -> Result<Self, Error>

Create and initialize the motion sensor

Errors

If there is a problem communicating with the sensor, an error is returned.

pub async fn accel_status(&mut self) -> Result<Status, Error>

Return status of accelerometer

Errors

If there is a problem communicating with the sensor, an error is returned.

pub async fn accel_data(&mut self) -> Result<Acceleration, Error>

Return accelerometer data

Returned in mg (milli-g) where 1g is 9.8m/s².

Errors

If there is a problem communicating with the sensor, an error is returned.

pub async fn accel_run( &mut self, rate: AccelOutputDataRate, sender: DynamicSender<'_, Acceleration>, ) -> Result<(), Error>

Run a continuous task outputing accelerometer data at the configured data rate

Errors

If there is a problem communicating with the sensor, an error is returned.

pub async fn mag_data(&mut self) -> Result<MagneticField, Error>

Returns data from the magnetometer.

Errors

Returns an error if the magnetometer is not ready to provide data, or if there is an error communicating with the sensor.

pub async fn mag_status(&mut self) -> Result<Status, Error>

Returns the status of the magnetometer.

Errors

Returns an error if there is an error communicating with the sensor.
