okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel Interfaces Manual corner of the group chat. This is the page for the Toradex OAK USB illuminance sensor, and it’s lowkey iconic. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

uoaklux — Toradex OAK USB illuminance sensor

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

uoaklux* at uhidev?

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

The uoaklux driver provides support for the Toradex OAK LUX. The sensor possesses a whole collection of sensor values, and they’re made available through the sysctl(8) interface. 🫶

The illuminance date unit is "Lux" 💡 — yes, that’s the exact string, no cap.

Because the sensing cycle of the illuminance sensor is faster than the sensor framework update period, the driver keeps maximum/minimum/average values as independent sensors. That’s the whole vibe: separate sensors for each, periodt.

The device has a unique serial number, indicated in the description part of the sensor value. 🎀
