Use the digital Color, proximity and gesture sensor APDS9960 in Elixir.

Installation

Add apds9960 to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:apds9960, "~> 0.1"}
  ]
end

Usage

Proximity detection

The proximity value ranges from 0 to 255, where the higher the number the closer an object is to the sensor.

Initialize the sensor

sensor = APDS9960.init()

Enable the proximity engine

APDS9960.enable(sensor, :proximity)

Measure proximity

APDS9960.proximity(sensor)

RGB Color Sensing

The results are 16-bit values from 0 to 65535, where 0 means the minimum amount of color and 65535 is the maximum amount of color.

Initialize the sensor

sensor = APDS9960.init()

Enable the color engine

APDS9960.enable(sensor, :color)

Retrieve the red, green, blue and clear color values

APDS9960.color(sensor)
# %{blue: 52, clear: 235, green: 73, red: 128}
