Constructor Detail

BuiltInAccelerometer

public BuiltInAccelerometer(Accelerometer.Range range)

Constructor.

Parameters:

range - The range the accelerometer will measure

BuiltInAccelerometer

public BuiltInAccelerometer()

Constructor. The accelerometer will measure +/-8 g-forces

Method Detail

setRange

public void setRange(Accelerometer.Range range)

Description copied from interface: Accelerometer

Common interface for setting the measuring range of an accelerometer.

Specified by:

setRange in interface Accelerometer

Parameters:

range - The maximum acceleration, positive or negative, that the accelerometer will measure. Not all accelerometers support all ranges.

getX

public double getX()

The acceleration in the X axis.

Specified by:

getX in interface Accelerometer

Returns:

The acceleration of the roboRIO along the X axis in g-forces

getY

public double getY()

The acceleration in the Y axis.

Specified by:

getY in interface Accelerometer

Returns:

The acceleration of the roboRIO along the Y axis in g-forces

getZ

public double getZ()

The acceleration in the Z axis.

Specified by:

getZ in interface Accelerometer

Returns:

The acceleration of the roboRIO along the Z axis in g-forces

initSendable

public void initSendable(SendableBuilder builder)

Description copied from interface: Sendable

Initializes this Sendable object.

Specified by:

initSendable in interface Sendable

Parameters:

builder - sendable builder
