Detailed Description

ID: rotary
Name: Rotary Angle Sensor
Other Names: Rotary Potentiometer, Grove Rotary Angle Sensor
Category: ainput
Manufacturer: seeed

Connection: analog
Kit: gsk

Basic UPM module for the rotary angle sensor (knob) on analog. Provides a set of functions to read the absolute pin value, degrees or radians, and another set to do the same relative to the center of the knob's range.

    // Instantiate a rotary sensor on analog pin A0
    upm::Rotary knob(0);
    // Print sensor name to confirm it initialized properly
    cout << knob.name() << endl;
    while (true) {
        float abs_value = knob.abs_value(); // Absolute raw value
        float abs_deg = knob.abs_deg();     // Absolute degrees
        float abs_rad = knob.abs_rad();     // Absolute radians
        float rel_value = knob.rel_value(); // Relative raw value
        float rel_deg = knob.rel_deg();     // Relative degrees
        float rel_rad = knob.rel_rad();     // Relative radians
        fprintf(stdout,
                "Absolute: %4d raw %5.2f deg = %3.2f rad Relative: %4d raw %5.2f "
                "deg %3.2f rad\n",
                (int16_t) abs_value,
                abs_deg,
                abs_rad,
                (int16_t) rel_value,
                rel_deg,
                rel_rad);
        upm_delay_us(2500000); // Sleep for 2.5s
    }
