Is There a Dedicated Android Library for Interfacing with STHS34PF80 Proximity Sensor?

[Anusree_k]

Hi,
I am currently working on a project using the STHS34PF80 proximity sensor from STMicroelectronics. The platform is running Android 14.0.0_1.0.0 (L6.1.55_2.2.0 BSP).

I would like to know if there is a dedicated Android driver or SDK available to directly interface with the STHS34PF80 sensor—either from STMicroelectronics or open-source contributors.

I have the datasheet and application notes for the sensor, and I understand its I²C communication protocol. However, before starting from scratch, I’d like to ask:

1) Any existing Android libraries or HAL implementations

2) Sensor integration examples in Android (preferably for NXP i.MX8M Plus - based platforms)

Any examples or references would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your support!

STMicroelectronics provides an official Linux Industrial I/O (IIO) driver for the STHS34PF80 sensor, which is compatible with Android platforms. This driver is part of the st-mems-android-linux-drivers-iio repository and includes support for both I²C and SPI interfaces. https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/st-mems-android-linux-drivers-iio/blob/master/drivers/iio/stm/tmos/st_sths34pf80/Kconfig

For Android integration, ST offers the Android/Linux Sensor Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL), which works with the IIO subsystem. This HAL provides a standardized interface for ST sensors, facilitating easier integration into Android systems.
