tomevault-io Environmental Sensors Tool
Access environmental sensors on Android device.
How It Works
This skill provides instructions for the Environmental Sensors tool node. Connect the Environmental Sensors node to Zeenie's input-tools handle to enable environmental sensing.
environmental_sensors Tool
Get temperature, humidity, pressure, and light data.
Schema Fields
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| action | string | Yes | "status" - Get sensor data |
Example
Get environmental data:
{
"action": "status"
}
Response Format
{
"success": true,
"service": "environmental_sensors",
"action": "status",
"data": {
"temperature": 23.5,
"humidity": 45.0,
"pressure": 1013.25,
"light": 350.0,
"sensors_available": {
"temperature": true,
"humidity": true,
"pressure": true,
"light": true
}
}
}
Response Fields
| Field | Type | Unit | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| temperature | float | Celsius | Ambient temperature |
| humidity | float | % | Relative humidity |
| pressure | float | hPa | Atmospheric pressure |
| light | float | lux | Ambient light level |
| sensors_available | object | - | Which sensors exist |
Sensor Availability
Not all devices have all sensors. Check sensors_available to see what's supported.
Light Level Guide
| Lux | Condition |
|---|---|
| < 50 | Dark/dim room |
| 50-300 | Indoor lighting |
| 300-1000 | Bright indoor |
| 1000-10000 | Overcast outdoor |
| 10000-100000 | Direct sunlight |
Temperature Notes
- Device temperature sensor may be affected by device heat
- For accurate ambient temperature, device should be idle
- Some devices don't have temperature sensor
Pressure Guide
| hPa | Weather |
|---|---|
| < 1000 | Low pressure (storms) |
| 1000-1020 | Normal |
| > 1020 | High pressure (clear) |
Use Cases
| Use Case | Sensor | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Weather tracking | pressure | Monitor local pressure |
| Humidity alert | humidity | Warn on high/low humidity |
| Light-based actions | light | Trigger on dark/bright |
| Temperature monitoring | temperature | Track ambient temp |
Common Workflows
Auto-brightness trigger
- Read light level
- If light < 100, suggest dark mode
- If light > 1000, suggest bright mode
Environment monitoring
- Periodically read all sensors
- Log data points
- Alert on thresholds
Weather correlation
- Track pressure over time
- Correlate with weather changes
- Predict weather patterns
Limitations
- Sensor availability varies by device model
- Temperature sensor may read higher due to device heat
- Indoor pressure differs from outdoor
- Light sensor is typically near front camera
Setup Requirements
- Connect the Environmental Sensors node to Zeenie's
input-toolshandle - Android device must be paired
- Sensors depend on device hardware
