mmm-usonic

A high performance, memory mapped, Node.js API for the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor connected to a Raspberry Pi. It's the updated version of clebert's r-pi-usonic API.

Getting Started

Installation

npm install mmm-usonic --save

Integration

var usonic = require('mmm-usonic');

API

usonic.init(callback)

Creates the memory mapping with a device-specific memory offset.

You must call this function only once and before any other function.

usonic.init(function (error) {
    if (error) {
        ...
    } else {
        ...
    }
});

usonic.createSensor(echoPin, triggerPin, [timeout])

Creates a new ultrasonic sensor function and returns it. The measurement timeout has a default value of 750 µs.

var sensor = usonic.createSensor(24, 23, 450);

sensor()

Returns the distance in cm if no measurement timeout occurs, and -1 otherwise.

var distance = sensor();

Example

This example needs access to the physical memory, so it must run as root.

sudo node examples/surveyor.js
