class viam.components.board.Board(name: str)[source]

Bases: viam.components.component_base.ComponentBase

Board represents a physical general purpose compute board that contains various components such as analog readers, and digital interrupts.

This acts as an abstract base class for any drivers representing specific board implementations. This cannot be used on its own. If the __init__() function is overridden, it must call the super().__init__() function.

remote: bool: Indicates whether this board is accessed over a remote connection, e.g. gRPC.

class AnalogReader(name: str)[source]

Bases: viam.components.component_base.ComponentBase
