CC2650 SensorTag

The foglamp-south-cc2650 is a plugin that connects using Bluetooth to a Texas Instruments CC2650 SensorTag. The SensorTag offers 10 sensors within a small, low powered package which may be read by this plugin and ingested into FogLAMP. These sensors include;

• ambient light
• magnetometer
• humidity
• pressure
• accelerometer
• gyroscope
• object temperature
• digital microphone

Note

The sensor requires that you have a Bluetooth low energy adapter available that supports at least BLE 4.0.
