Features

• Easy to Use: The library offers straightforward functions that make it easy to integrate sensors into your projects.
• Wide Compatibility: Works with popular microcontrollers such as Arduino, ESP32, and NodeMCU.
• Sensor Calibration: Built-in functions to calibrate sensors for accurate measurements.
• Comprehensive Documentation: Clear instructions and examples for each function.
• Community Support: Join a growing community of developers using the library.

Installation

To install the Sensor_Lib, follow these steps:

1. Download the library from the Releases section.
2. Extract the downloaded files.
3. Move the extracted folder to your Arduino libraries directory, typically located at Documents/Arduino/libraries/.
4. Restart the Arduino IDE.

Once installed, you can start using the library in your projects.

Usage

Using the Sensor_Lib is simple. Here’s a quick guide on how to include the library and use its functions.

1. Include the library in your Arduino sketch:

   #include <Sensor_Lib.h>

2. Initialize the sensor in the setup() function:

   void setup() {
       Serial.begin(9600);
       Sensor_Lib sensor;
       sensor.begin();
   }

3. Use the library functions to read sensor data:

   void loop() {
       float value = sensor.readValue();
       Serial.println(value);
       delay(1000);
   }

This example shows how to read a value from a sensor every second. The library handles the details, allowing you to focus on your project.

Supported Sensors and Components

The Sensor_Lib supports a variety of sensors and components. Here are some of the most commonly used:

• Temperature Sensors: DHT11, DHT22, LM35
• Humidity Sensors: DHT11, DHT22
• Light Sensors: LDR, BH1750
• Distance Sensors: HC-SR04, VL53L0X
• Pressure Sensors: BMP180, BMP280
• Motion Sensors: PIR, MPU6050

This list is not exhaustive. Check the documentation for more details on supported sensors.

Examples

The library comes with several examples to help you get started. You can find these examples in the examples folder within the library directory. Here are a few highlighted examples:

Temperature and Humidity Monitoring

This example shows how to read temperature and humidity data using a DHT sensor.

#include <Sensor_Lib.h>

Sensor_Lib dht;

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(9600);
    dht.begin();
}

void loop() {
    float temperature = dht.readTemperature();
    float humidity = dht.readHumidity();
    Serial.print("Temperature: ");
    Serial.print(temperature);
    Serial.print(" °C, Humidity: ");
    Serial.print(humidity);
    Serial.println(" %");
    delay(2000);
}

Light Level Measurement

Use this example to measure light levels with an LDR.

#include <Sensor_Lib.h>

Sensor_Lib ldr;

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(9600);
    ldr.begin();
}

void loop() {
    int lightLevel = ldr.readLightLevel();
    Serial.print("Light Level: ");
    Serial.println(lightLevel);
    delay(1000);
}

These examples demonstrate the ease of use and flexibility of the Sensor_Lib.
