Generic Proximity Sensor Sample

Overview

This sample demonstrates how to use one or multiple proximity sensors.

Building and Running

The sample supports up to 10 proximity sensors. The number of the sensors will automatically detected from the devicetree, you only need to set aliases from prox-sensor-0 to prox-sensor-9.

For example:

/ {
           aliases {
                   prox-sensor0 = &tmd2620;
           };
};

After creating the devicetree overlay you can build the sample with:

west build -b <your_board> samples/sensor/proximity_polling
west flash
