A CircuitPython/Python library for Benewake's TF mini distance sensor
Dependencies
=============
This driver depends on:
* `Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>`_
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-tfmini/>`_. To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tfmini
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tfmini
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-tfmini
Usage Example
=============
.. code-block:: python
import time
import board # comment this out if using pyserial
import busio # comment this out if using pyserial
import adafruit_tfmini
# Use hardware uart
uart = busio.UART(board.TX, board.RX)
# Or, you can use pyserial on any computer
#import serial
#uart = serial.Serial("/dev/ttyS2", timeout=1)
# Simplest use, connect with the uart bus object
tfmini = adafruit_tfmini.TFmini(uart)
# You can put in 'short' or 'long' distance mode
tfmini.mode = adafruit_tfmini.MODE_SHORT
print("Now in mode", tfmini.mode)
while True:
print("Distance: %d cm (strength %d, mode %x)" %
(tfmini.distance, tfmini.strength, tfmini.mode))
time.sleep(0.1)
Documentation
=============
API documentation for this library can be found on `Read the Docs <https://docs.circuitpython.org/projects/tfmini/en/latest/>`_.
For information on building library documentation, please check out `this guide <https://learn.adafruit.com/creating-and-sharing-a-circuitpython-library/sharing-our-docs-on-readthedocs#sphinx-5-1>`_.
