Custom sensors sample

Shows how to use the Windows.Devices.Sensors.Custom namespace.

Note: This sample is part of a large collection of UWP feature samples. You can download this sample as a standalone ZIP file from docs.microsoft.com, or you can download the entire collection as a single ZIP file, but be sure to unzip everything to access shared dependencies. For more info on working with the ZIP file, the samples collection, and GitHub, see Get the UWP samples from GitHub. For more samples, see the Samples portal on the Windows Dev Center.

This sample allows the user to view the CO2 level for custom sensor based CO2 sensor. You can choose one of two scenarios:

  • Custom sensor data events
  • Polling custom sensor readings

Custom Sensor Data Events

When you click on the Enable button for the Data Events option, the app will begin streaming Custom Sensor readings in real time.

Polling Custom Sensor Readings

When you click on the Get CO2 level button for the Polling option, the app will retrieve the current sensor readings.
