colorname12() → int[source]

Return one of 12 colors or NONE.

ROBOT MESH PYTHON B:

Get the name of the detected color.

Returns: enum value of the closest color detected out of 12 possible values of ColorType (or NONE).

colorname3() → int[source]

Return one of RED, GREEN and BLUE.

ROBOT MESH PYTHON B:

Get the name of the detected color.

Returns: enum value for the closest color detected out of ColorHue.RED, GREEN or BLUE (or NONE).

grayscale(raw: bool = False) → int[source]

Return grayscale value.

ROBOT MESH PYTHON B:

Get the grayscale value detected by the color sensor.

Parameters: - raw: if True, raw value will be returned, otherwise a percentage

Returns: integer that represents the detected grayscale value (percentage 0-100 or raw 0-1024).

led(state: bool)[source]

Set LED state.

ROBOT MESH PYTHON B:

Turn the led on the color sensor on or off.

Parameters: - state: if True, LED will be turned on

near() → bool[source]

Check if there is a nearly object.

ROBOT MESH PYTHON B:

Check to see if an object is detected by the color sensor.

Returns: True if an object has been detected, False otherwise

set_proximity_threshold(proximity: float = 700)[source]

Set threshold for proximity.

ROBOT MESH PYTHON B:

Set the near threshold setting.

Parameters: - proximity: threshold (higher is closer) (default 700)
