This project contains python libraries needed to drive a home-made lego robot. Human interface devices like a mouse, a trackpad or a SNES-style gamepad issue commands to the robot and make it move. Control is limited to a robot with four degrees of freedom at present without clever kinematics ie. commands from the controller simply move single joints or the end-effector (grasper) rather than moving multiple joints simultaneously and mapping to the end-effector frame of reference.
Note: No wheel is available on pypi.org. You will have to either build the wheel yourself and install that or install as develop.
The following commands should install as develop...
$ cd daveshed-adafruit-jc/daveshed
$ pip install -e .
$ cd daveshed-legobot/daveshed
$ pip install -e .
Check out examples/ for ideas on how to fire up the application. You will find examples on how to connect up different input devices and a stub robot implementation in case you don't have any hardware available and want to get a flavour of how this works. This might be a good place to start if you have a regular mouse handy...
$ python -i examples/mouse.py
Issuing a keyboard interrupt or application.terminate() command should stop the application when you're ready.
