Adafruit CircuitPython module for the AMG88xx GRID-Eye IR 8x8 thermal camera.
Dependencies
=============
This driver depends on:
* `Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>`_
* `Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>`_
* `Register <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Register>`_
Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
`the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Bundle>`_.
Installing from PyPI
====================
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from
PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-amg88xx/>`_. To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-amg88xx
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-amg88xx
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-amg88xx
Usage Example
=============
Of course, you must import the library to use it:
.. code-block:: python
import busio
import adafruit_amg88xx
The way to create an I2C object depends on the board you are using. For boards with labeled SCL and SDA pins, you can:
.. code-block:: python
import board
You can also use pins defined by the onboard microcontroller through the microcontroller.pin module.
Now, to initialize the I2C bus:
.. code-block:: python
i2c_bus = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA)
Once you have created the I2C interface object, you can use it to instantiate the AMG88xx object
.. code-block:: python
amg = adafruit_amg88xx.AMG88XX(i2c_bus)
You can also optionally use the alternate i2c address (make sure to solder the jumper on the back of the board if you want to do this)
.. code-block:: python
amg = adafruit_amg88xx.AMG88XX(i2c_bus, addr=0x68)
Pixels can be then be read by doing:
.. code-block:: python
print(amg.pixels)
Documentation
=============
API documentation for this library can be found on `Read the Docs <https://docs.circuitpython.org/projects/amg88xx/en/latest/>`_.
