# Temperature Sensor Monitor for Apple Silicon M1
- temp_sensor.m: A modified version of the [code](https://github.com/freedomtan/sensors/blob/master/sensors/sensors.m) for iOS sensor by [freedomtan](https://github.com/freedomtan);
- monitor.cpp: A c++ wrapper of Objective-C output for monitoring temperature in the terminal.
## Usage
`./temp_sensor | ./monitor`
Only test with my Mac mini with M1. Please check your mac's `ioreg -lfx` output if needed.
## References
For better names (e.g. what is `PMU TP3w` ?) for the sensors, please refer to

Here is a similar code in swift for getting sensor values using IOKit (for intel Mac)

For intel Mac, an easier way to get sensor infomation:
`sudo powermetrics`
