Arduino APDS9960 Proximity sensor
#6
Hello,

I did not realized that the proximity sensor was the same hardware than the light sensor... I wonder if a calibration could give some result in cm instead of just a number between 0 and 255?

I haven't tested the proximity feature (sorry BrunoD), but I have tested the light sensor. It works straightforwardly and gives the light intensity as well as the three channel components values (R, G, B). I expect Solid's SensorTag setup to work equally well with an arduino nano. I did test the light sensor by measuring the quantity of light going through sheets of plastic, and could model the results with the BeerLambert law (https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.10531).

Cheers,

Fred
