Description-en: IIO sensors to D-Bus proxy
Industrial I/O subsystem is intended to provide support for devices
that in some sense are analog to digital or digital to analog convertors
.
Devices that fall into this category are:
* ADCs
* Accelerometers
* Gyros
* IMUs
* Capacitance to Digital Converters (CDCs)
* Pressure Sensors
* Color, Light and Proximity Sensors
* Temperature Sensors
* Magnetometers
* DACs
* DDS (Direct Digital Synthesis)
* PLLs (Phase Locked Loops)
* Variable/Programmable Gain Amplifiers (VGA, PGA)
.
Many ultrabooks ship with some of these devices. iio-sensor-proxy is
intended to serve as a proxy, providing access to these devices through
a D-Bus interface
