Detailed Description

Interface for Luminosity sensor, BH1750. 

 #include "mbed.h"
 #include "BH1750.h"

 // I2C Communication
  BH1750      lum(dp5,dp27);    // BH1750 SDA, SCL
 // If you connected I2C line not only this device but also other devices,
 //     you need to declare following method.
  I2C         i2c(dp5,dp27);    // SDA, SCL
  BH1750      lum(i2c);         // BH1750 SDA, SCL (Data available every 120mSec)

 int main() {;
   while(true){
      printf("Illuminance: %+7.2f [Lux]\r\n", lum.lux());
      wait(1.0);
   }
 }
