SMARSLab

SMARS Lab - A simple web app for playing with SMARS Robots.

To Install:

  • log on to your raspberry pi

  • clone the SMARS Lab github repository: git clone https://www.github.com/kevinmcaleer/SMARSLab

  • change to the SMARSLab directory: cd SMARSLab

  • install virtualenv: pip install virtualenv or 'sudo apt-get install virtualenv'

  • create a new virtual python environment: python3 -m venv venv

  • activate the new python environment: source venv/bin/activate

  • install the pre-requisites: pip install -r requirements.txt

  • load SMARSLab: python smarslab.py

  • Open a webbrowser at: either http://localhost:5000 or http://raspberrypi-IP-ADDRESS:5000

  • You will need to install the following python libraries for this to work: sudo apt-get install python-smbus

    sudo apt-get install i2c-tools

  • Make sure I2C is enabled in the interfaces from the Raspberry Pi Configuration.

  • Enjoy!
