BME280 Humidity and Pressure Sensor
###################################
Overview
********
This sample application periodically reads temperature, pressure and humidity data from
the first available device that implements SENSOR_CHAN_AMBIENT_TEMP, SENSOR_CHAN_PRESS,
and SENSOR_CHAN_HUMIDITY. This sample checks the sensor in polling mode (without
interrupt trigger).
Building and Running
********************
This sample application uses an BME280 sensor connected to a board via I2C.
Connect the sensor pins according to the connection diagram given in the `bme280 datasheet`_
at page 38.

Sample Output
=============
To check output of this sample , any serial console program can be used.
This example uses ``picocom`` on the serial port ``/dev/ttyACM0``:
.. code-block:: console
$ sudo picocom -D /dev/ttyUSB0
.. code-block:: console
temp: 27.950000; press: 100.571027; humidity: 61.014648
temp: 27.940000; press: 100.570269; humidity: 61.012695
temp: 27.950000; press: 100.570695; humidity: 61.002929
