getDistance()
Description
Uses an infrared sensor to detect the distance between any object and the sensor.
Parameters
Sensor - The distance sensor to get the data from. In example picture above, this is labelled as 'distance'.
Property - The function to call on the distance sensor. In this case we're calling getDistance.
Distance Unit - Set the unit measurement of the value returned.
Property - The function to call on the distance sensor. In this case we're calling getDistance.
Distance Unit - Set the unit measurement of the value returned.
Return
Number - The distance between the sensor and the first object it reaches. Unit is dependent on parameters provided.
Utilities
RGBToColor()
Description
The rgbToColor method is a method within the class 'Color', and is called to convert the the RGB vlaues
provided by the sensors to HSV values.
Parameters
Red - The Red RGB value of the color sensor.
Green - The Green RGB value of the color sensor.
Blue - The Blue RGB value of the color sensor.
Green - The Green RGB value of the color sensor.
Blue - The Blue RGB value of the color sensor.
Return
Returns an object that holds the HSV values.
getPropertyNumber()
Description
calls the getHue, getSaturation, and getValue methods from the class Color. Requires a 'HSV Object' as an input parameter
Parameters
HSV Object that has HSV values stored.
Return
Returns the hue, saturation or value of HSV object.
