Ultrasonic Sensor¶

Get Distance¶

get_distance(self)

Returns the current distance

distance = Robo.Ultrasonic1.get_distance()

get_sound_level(self)

Returns the current sound level

sound = Robo.Ultrasonic1.get_sound()

set_trigger(self, value,``comparitor``)

value is the trigger value in centimeters
comparitor 0 sets less than, 1 sets greater than value

Robo.Ultrasonic1.set_trigger(50, 1)  # sets the trigger to set off when a distance greater than 50 cm is seen

set_sound_trigger(self, value,``comparitor``)

value is the trigger value
comparitor 0 sets less than, 1 sets greater than value

Robo.Ultrasonic1.set_sound_trigger(150, 1)  # sets the trigger to set off when the sound is greater than 150

check_distance_trigger(self)

Returns 1 if the trigger has happened

while not Robo.Ultrasonic1.check_distance_trigger():
        # do stuff

check_distance_trigger(self)

Returns 1 if the trigger has happened

while not Robo.Ultrasonic1.check_sound_trigger():
        # do stuff
