Python interface for the BrickPi using Objects and Coroutines

Project description

https://badge.fury.io/py/BrickPython.png https://pypip.in/d/BrickPython/badge.png

BrickPython provides an easy Python programming environment for the BrickPi, making Lego NXT motors behave as servo motors. The framework provides coroutines to give you always-responsive programs, and objects to help you partition programs.

Features

  • Implementation of PID algorithm to make an NXT motor into a servo-motor

  • Simple objects representing Motor and different types of Sensor

  • Implementation of Python coroutines and scheduler for Python 2.7

  • Uses Brickpi.py from BrickPi_python

  • Implementation of an NXT motor constant speed algorithm

  • Full unit test suite

  • Runs on other Linux environments (Mac etc) for unit tests and development.

Changes in v0.4

  • Updated PID algorithm so it’s independent of the work cycle time. BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY WARNING: One parameter to the constructor of Motor.PIDSetting has changed.

  • Added specialized sensor classes: UltrasonicSensor, TouchSensor, LightSensor

  • Added useful script for cross-platform testing.
