About This Guide

The Sensor library abstracts the complexity of interfacing with a sensor or a camera that's connected to the target board.

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

There are several code snippets included in this guide. These examples show what functions can be called and ho 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. This table may help you find what you need in this guide:
