class	Delegate
	Defines protocol used to send data back to owner. Derive from this class and use Sensor.setDelegate() to receive sensor updates. More...
Public Member Functions
virtual bool	powerOn ()=0
	Power on a sensor and make it ready for use.
virtual void	powerOff ()=0
	Power off a sensor. This will generally only put the sensor into deep sleep.
virtual void	start ()=0
	Start continuous data capture. If a delegate is set, its sensorUpdate() method will be called for each data frame.
virtual void	stop ()=0
	Stop capturing data.
virtual Vector3	read ()=0
	Read and return instantaneous (current) sensor data. No need to start the sensor.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void powerOff ( ) [pure virtual]

Power off a sensor. This will generally only put the sensor into deep sleep.

virtual bool powerOn ( ) [pure virtual]

Power on a sensor and make it ready for use.

virtual Vector3 read ( ) [pure virtual]

Read and return instantaneous (current) sensor data. No need to start the sensor.

virtual void start ( ) [pure virtual]

Start continuous data capture. If a delegate is set, its sensorUpdate() method will be called for each data frame.

virtual void stop ( ) [pure virtual]

Stop capturing data.
