First class data visualization and communication with embedded devices
Project description
pytelemetry
This module implements a powerful communication protocol that makes remote control and monitoring of embedded devices an effortless task.
from pytelemetry import Pytelemetry
from pytelemetry.transports.serialtransport import SerialTransport
import time
transport = SerialTransport()
tlm = Pytelemetry(transport)
transport.connect({port:'com9',baudrate:'9600'})
# publish once on topic 'throttle' (a named communication channel)
tlm.publish('throttle',0.8,'float32')
def printer(topic, data, opts):
print(topic," : ", data)
# Subscribe a `printer` function called on every frame with topic 'feedback'.
tlm.subscribe("feedback", printer)
# Update during 3 seconds
timeout = time.time() + 3
while True:
tlm.update()
if time.time() > timeout:
break
# disconnect
transport.disconnect()
print("Done.")Language C implementation
Telemetry is the same protocol implemented in C language.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
Pytelemetry CLI is a powerful command interface perfectly suited for fast prototyping with this protocol. It allows for plotting embedded device’s data on-the-fly, publishing values on any topics, listing serial ports and much more.
Centralized documentation
The documentation for all three projects is centralized here.
