NextDistanceSensor

Lightweight wrapper for a distance sensor that caches the last reading. Call update in periodic to read the hardware.

Use isWithinDistance to check if an object is close enough.

Example:

override fun periodic() {
    sensor.update()
    if (sensor.isWithinDistance(6.7)) { ... }
}

Lazily resolves the backing DistanceSensor.

Constructors

constructor(initializer: () -> DistanceSensor)

constructor(name: String)

fun getDistance(unit: DistanceUnit = DistanceUnit.CM): Double

Returns the last cached distance converted to the requested unit.

fun isWithinDistance(threshold: Double, unit: DistanceUnit = DistanceUnit.CM): Boolean

True if a distance sensor senses an object within threshold in the given unit.

Reads the distance sensor and refreshes the cache. Call this once per loop, before reading any properties.
