adi-study-watch 4.0.7

ADI study watch python SDK

Study Watch Python SDK

The adi-study-watch provides an object-oriented interface for interacting with ADI's VSM study watch platform.

Installation

pip install adi-study-watch

Description

A user application can use the SDK to receive complete packets of bytes over a physical interface (USB or BLE) and decode it. The functionality is organized into applications, some of which own sensors, some own system-level functionality (i.e. file system), and while others own algorithms. The hierarchy of objects within the SDK mirrors the applications present on the device. Each application has its own object within the SDK hierarchy, which is used to interact with that application. A brief guide on using the SDK and few examples have been added below.

Firmware Setup

https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/study-watch-sdk/blob/main/firmware/Study_Watch_Firmware_Upgrade.pdf

Getting started with SDK

Import the adi-study-watch module into your application code

from adi_study_watch import SDK

Instantiate the SDK object by passing the com port number

sdk = SDK('COM28')

The application objects can be instantiated from the sdk object. In order to instantiate an application object, we'll have to pass a call-back function as an input argument which can be used to retrieve the data from the application object. Define a callback function as displayed below.

def adxl_cb(data):
    print(data)

Once the call-back function is defined, you can instantiate the application object as shown below.

adxl_app = sdk.get_adxl_application()
adxl_app.set_callback(adxl_cb)

Each application object has various methods that can be called by referring to the application. An example of retrieving the sensor status is shown below. Almost all method in an application returns result in a dict.

packet = adxl_app.get_sensor_status() # returns dict
print(packet)

Basic Example:

import time
from adi_study_watch import SDK

# callback function to receive adxl data
def callback_adxl(data):
    for d in data["payload"]["stream_data"]:
        print(d["timestamp"], d["x"], d["y"], d["z"]))


sdk = SDK("COM4")
adxl_application = sdk.get_adxl_application()
adxl_application.set_callback(callback_adxl)
adxl_application.start_sensor()
adxl_application.subscribe_stream()
time.sleep(10)
adxl_application.unsubscribe_stream()
adxl_application.stop_sensor()
