Ambient Light Sensor

skruglewicz
skruglewicz over 5 years ago

Has anyone attempted to access the Light Sensor?

Can anyone steer me some examples on the starter kit?

Is it accessible thru the SDK?

Any directions would be appreciated.

I'm trying to use it in my project and I can't seem to find any examples on accessing thru the GPIO API in the SDK..

    Thanks so much for getting me this link. I discovered it last night and will start today to dissect the code sample to understand how to implement access to the light sensor. I was looking for a GPIO connection…

    Thanks so much for getting me this link.

    I discovered it last night and will start today to dissect the code sample to understand how to implement access to the light sensor.

    I was looking for a GPIO connection, but now understanding the architecture of the Sphere chip and the kit connections,  It makes some sense to me now.

     

    I'm a Software Engineer and embedded systems and EE are foreign to me. i'm having fun with it though...

    THANKS Again Community...
