Ambient Temperature Sensor

R2026b

Measure ambient temperature in degree Celsius

• 

Ambient Temperature Sensor block

To add a block to a model, double-click the canvas and start typing the block name. Then, select the block from the list.

Libraries:
Simulink Support Package for Android Devices / Sensors

Description

Add-On Required: This feature requires the Simulink Support Package for Android Devices add-on.

Use the Ambient Temperature Sensor block to measure ambient temperature in degree Celsius from the temperature sensor on the Android^® device.

Note

During simulation with no hardware connected, this block does nothing. For more information, see Block Produces Zeros or Does Nothing in Simulation.

Ports

Output

Port_1 — Temperature data

scalar

The block outputs the data read from the temperature sensor of the device.

Data Types: single

Parameters

Sample time — Time interval of sampling

0.1 (default) | nonnegative scalar

Specify a discrete time interval, in seconds, at which the block reads the temperature sensor of the device and outputs the data.

Note

Smaller values for Sample time require the processor to complete the same number of instructions in less time, which can cause task overruns.

Programmatic Use: Add Block

To add the block programmatically, use the add_block function with one of these library block paths as the source.

"androidsensorlib/Ambient Temperature Sensor"

Example: add_block("androidsensorlib/Ambient Temperature Sensor","myModel/myBlock",MakeNameUnique="on")
