Ultrasonic Sensor

A sensor that determines the distance of an object without any physical contact involved.

import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

Registers​

reading​

Current distance from the object.

  • read only
import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

const value = await distance.reading.read()
  • track incoming values
import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

distance.reading.subscribe(async (value) => {
    ...
})

readingError​

Absolute error on the reading value.

  • read only
import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

const value = await distance.readingError.read()
  • track incoming values
import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

distance.readingError.subscribe(async (value) => {
    ...
})

minReading​

Minimum measurable distance.

  • read only
import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

const value = await distance.maxReading.read()

maxReading​

Maximum measurable distance.

  • read only
import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

const value = await distance.minReading.read()

variant​

Determines the type of sensor used.

  • read only
import { Distance } from "@devicescript/core"

const distance = new Distance()

const value = await distance.variant.read()
