Sample peripheral drivers for Android Things.

Note: The Android Things Console will be turned down for non-commercial use on January 5, 2022. For more details, see the FAQ page.

How to use a driver

For your convenience, drivers in this repository are also published to JCenter as Maven artifacts. Look at their artifact and group ID in their build.gradle and add them as dependencies to your own project.

For example, to use the button driver, version 1.0, simply add the line below to your project's build.gradle:

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.google.android.things.contrib:driver-button:1.0'
}
