The ADXL377 is a low power accelerometer capable of measuring +/- 200g of acceleration along three axes. The ADXL377 is controlled via I2C.
Code Example
public class MeadowApp : App<F7Micro, MeadowApp>
{
Adxl377 sensor;
public MeadowApp()
{
sensor = new Adxl377(Device, Device.Pins.A01, Device.Pins.A02, Device.Pins.A03, 500);
sensor.AccelerationChanged += Sensor_AccelerationChanged;
}
void Sensor_AccelerationChanged(object sender, Meadow.Foundation.Sensors.SensorVectorEventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine($"X: {e.CurrentValue.X}, Y: {e.CurrentValue.Y}, Z: {e.CurrentValue.Z}");
}
}
