Summary
This documentation deals with the Raspberry Sense Hat.
Requirements
- Hardware: Raspberry Pi
- Operating system: Rasbian
- Interpreter: Python or Python3
- Packages: sense-hat
Description
This add-on board has a is packed with three sensor chips as wall as a 8 by 8 RGB Led matrix and a joystick. The Sensors are a barometer, a hygrometer and an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit). The barometer measures the air pressure and the temperature. The hygrometer measures the humidity and the temperature as well. The used IMU holds a gyroscope, an accelerometer and a magnetometer for an accurate determination of rotation, movement and detection of magnetic fields.
Package Installation
sudo apt-get install sense-hat
Python Programming
The Sense Hat is mainly used via python programming. The developers also developed a sense hat programming simulation program on trinket.io where you are able to test your code without owning the Sense Hat.
The Project comes with two main libraries the sense_emu which is needed when using the Emulator and the sense_hat for the device. For detailed information about the library use the documentation.
Importing the Libary
# emulator libary from sense_emu import SenseHat
# sensehat libary from sense_hat import SenseHat sense = SenseHat()
