# Sensor Events

The following list contains the names of all sensor events' parameters. With these names, you can filter your events and build amazing functions and interactions with Misty!

For example in the bump sensor Python function, to select a specific bumper you need to create an if statement where you verify: 

```python
if data["message"]["sensorId"] == 'bfr':
    #actions
```

 On this page, you'll get all the information about the name of the parameter, the comparison operator and the comparison value: 

### ActuatorPosition 

```python
 ActuatorPosition Event:
        ArmLeft = ("SensorId", "=", "ala")
        ArmRight = ("SensorId", "=", "ara")
        HeadPitch = ("SensorId", "=", "ahp")
        HeadRoll = ("SensorId", "=", "ahr")
        HeadYaw = ("SensorId", "=", "ahy")
```

### BumpSensor

```python
BumpSensorPosition Event:
        BackLeft = ("SensorId", "=", "brl")
        BackRight = ("SensorId", "=", "brr")
        FrontLeft = ("SensorId", "=", "bfl")
        FrontRight = ("SensorId", "=", "bfr")
```

### CapTouch Sensor

```python
CapTouchPosition Event:
        Chin = ("SensorPosition", "=", "Chin")
        Scruff = ("SensorPosition", "=", "Scruff")
        Right = ("SensorPosition", "=", "HeadRight")
        Left = ("SensorPosition", "=", "HeadLeft")
        Back = ("SensorPosition", "=", "HeadBack")
        Front = ("SensorPosition", "=", "HeadFront")
```

### TimeOfFlight

**Distance**

```python
    TimeOfFlightDistance Event:
        MinDistance = ("DistanceInMeters", ">=", value)
        MinDistance = ("DistanceInMeters", ">=", value)
```

**Position**

```python
TimeOfFlightPosition Event:
        FrontLeft = ("SensorPosition", "=", "Left")
        FrontRight = ("SensorPosition", "=", "Right")
        FrontCenter = ("SensorPosition", "=", "Center")
        Back = ("SensorPosition", "=", "Back")
        DownwardBackLeft = ("SensorPosition", "=", "DownBackLeft")
        DownwardBackRight = ("SensorPosition", "=", "DownBackRight")
        DownwardFrontLeft = ("SensorPosition", "=", "DownFrontLeft")
        DownwardFrontRight = ("SensorPosition", "=", "DownFrontRight")
```

**Status**

```python
TimeOfFlightStatus Event:
        MinStatus = ("Status", ">=", value)
        MaxStatus = ("Status", "<=", value)    
        StatusEqual = ("Status", "=", value)
```

### Face Recognition

```python
FaceRecognition Event:
        Label = ("Label", "=", "your_name")
```

### Object Detection

```python
ObjectDetection Event:
Description = ("description","=","knownobject_name")
```
