Rotation(pin)
value()

  • value(): Returns sensor value

Sample Program

from future import *
from sugar import *

rotation = Rotation('P1')

x = 0

# 区间映射公式，不需要了解太详细，直接套用就可以了
def valmap(x, in_min, in_max, out_min, out_max):
    return int((x-in_min) * (out_max-out_min) / (in_max-in_min) + out_min)

neopix=NeoPixel("P7",3)
while True:
    x = (round(valmap(rotation.value(), 0, 4096, 0, 255)))
    neopix.setColorAll((x,x,x))
