Split all classes to their own file. This keeps things organized, and allows per-class comments about compatibility. Also flatten toggled examples.

EV3 MicroPython is built on top of ev3dev, which means that a sensor
|
|
may be supported even if it is not listed in this documentation. If so, you can
|
|
use it with the ``Ev3devSensor`` class. This is easier and faster than using
|
|
the custom device classes given above.
|
|
|
|
To check whether you can use the ``Ev3devSensor`` class:
|
|
|
|
* Plug the sensor into your EV3 Brick.
|
|
* Go to the main menu of the EV3 Brick.
|
|
* Select `Device Browser` and then `Sensors`.
|
|
* If your sensor shows up, you can use it.
|
|
|
|
Now select your sensor from the menu and choose `set mode`. This shows all
|
|
available modes for this sensor. You can use these mode names as the ``mode``
|
|
setting below.
|
|
|
|
To learn more about compatible devices and what each mode does,
|
|
visit the `ev3dev sensors`_ page.

**Example: Reading values with the Ev3devSensor class**
|
|
|
|
In this example we use the LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Color Sensor with the raw
|
|
RGB mode. This gives uncalibrated red, green, and blue reflection values.

**Example: Extending the Ev3devSensor class**
|
|
|
|
This example shows how to extend the ``Ev3devSensor`` class by accessing
|
|
additional features found in the Linux system folder for this device.
