This library allows the reading of temperatures from the MLX90615
using Go on the Raspberry Pi.
This uses the link:https://godoc.org/periph.io/x/periph/conn/i2c[periph.io/x/periph/conn/i2c]
I2C-bus library.

This is based on link:https://github.com/zerynth/lib-melexis-mlx90615[zerynth/lib-melexis-mlx90615],

== Sample usage
[source,go]
----
package main

import (
    "log"

    "github.com/janreggie/go-mlx90615"
)

func main() {
    mlxObj, err := mlx90615.NewMLX90615(0x5B, 1)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalln("NewMLX90615 error: ", err)
    }
    if ambientTemp, err := mlxObj.ReadAmbientTemperature(); err != nil {
        log.Fatalln("Can't read ambient temperature: ", err)
    } else {
        log.Println("Ambient temperature is ", ambientTemp)
    }
    if objectTemp, err := mlxObj.ReadObjectTemperature(); err != nil {
        log.Fatalln("Can't read object temperature: ", err)
    } else {
        log.Println("Object temperature is ", objectTemp)
    }
    if emissivity, err := mlxObj.ReadEmissivity(); err != nil {
        log.Fatalln("Can't read emissivity: ", err)
    } else {
        log.Println("Emissivity is ", emissivity)
    }
