About This Guide

The Sensor library abstracts the complexity of interfacing with sensors and cameras connected to the target board.

Use the Sensor library to work with sensors (e.g., radar, lidar, Global Positioning System (GPS), Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)) or cameras. The Sensor library provides an interface that applications can use to communicate with sensors or cameras. This guide describes the Sensor library and how to work with the API.

Note: There are several code snippets included in this guide. These examples show what functions can be called and how you can use them to build applications. For readability, we’ve omitted any error checking and handling in the code snippets. For your production application code, make sure you perform the appropriate error handling.
