Types

type LSM303

type LSM303 struct {
	Bus  embd.I2CBus
	Poll int
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

LSM303 represents a LSM303 magnetometer.

func New

func New(bus embd.I2CBus) *LSM303

New creates a new LSM303 interface. The bus variable controls the I2C bus used to communicate with the device.

func (*LSM303) Close

func (d *LSM303) Close() error

Close the sensor data acquisition loop and put the LSM303 into sleep mode.

func (*LSM303) Heading

func (d *LSM303) Heading() (float64, error)

Heading returns the current heading [0, 360).

func (*LSM303) Run

func (d *LSM303) Run() error

Run starts the sensor data acquisition loop.
