.. currentmodule:: pyb
class Accel -- accelerometer control
====================================
Accel is an object that controls the accelerometer. Example usage::
accel = pyb.Accel()
for i in range(10):
print(accel.x(), accel.y(), accel.z())
Raw values are between -32 and 31.
Constructors
------------
.. class:: pyb.Accel()
Create and return an accelerometer object.
Methods
-------
.. method:: accel.filtered_xyz()
Get a 3-tuple of filtered x, y and z values.
Implementation note: this method is currently implemented as taking the
sum of 4 samples, sampled from the 3 previous calls to this function along
with the sample from the current call. Returned values are therefore 4
times the size of what they would be from the raw x(), y() and z() calls.
.. method:: accel.tilt()
Get the tilt register.
.. method:: accel.x()
Get the x-axis value.
.. method:: accel.y()
Get the y-axis value.
.. method:: accel.z()
Get the z-axis value.
