Accessing mac's sensor data

Question

Is there a way to get ambient light sensors data on mac using Python and/or C++? Googled it but didn't find much information.Most of the info there is related to Objective-C

Is the data available via IPMI? – Steve-o Oct 24 '12 at 14:58 — Steve-o, Oct 24 '12 at 14:58

this looks to be non-trivial ... you will probably need to use C/C++ to make a swig component

Here is a project that reads the sudden movement sensor data .... take a look at it
