Single shot in standby mode

[hbredin]

I am trying to trigger a single shot detection in standby mode.

Documentation says:

Address	Name	Default	Description
0x01	Mode	0x01 (continuous)	Mode. See mode table below.
0x03	Single shot	0x00	Trigger a single-shot inference. Only works if the sensor is in standby mode.

I therefore

1. set the sensor to standby mode by writing 0x00 to address 0x01 (this seems to work)
2. trigger a single shot by writing 0x01 to address 0x03

Then, what shoud I do to read the result?

Reading the data works fine in continuous mode but does not return anything (empty list of faces) after triggering the single shot in standby mode.

I think I understand what happens.

I did not wait long enough for the single shot to be completed before reading the detection results. Adding a bit of delay before reading the data does work as expected.

For others impatient like me, here is a (the?) solution:

1. set the sensor to standby mode by writing 0x00 to address 0x01 (this seems to work)
2. trigger a single shot by writing 0x01 to address 0x03
3. wait a second
4. read the result
