botd

Simple robot controller framework for Raspberry Pi based robots

Dependancies

Base dependancies include python3 and the requests library. For the keyboard "virtual controller" python3-keyboard is required. For camera support, python3-opencv is required. For robots, the default control scheme assumes use of the Raspberry Pi's GPIO module.

Example:

This is an example of how to connect our favourite robot (Sherbert Lemon) to a laptop running both a server and a virtual controller. You can tweak the sherbert_lemon.json config file for your own robots.

On the laptop:

./botd_server.py

...and in a seperate window after...

./botd_client.py --remote 127.0.0.1:8080 virtual_controller.json --port 8082

NOTE: --port is only required when running both a client and server on the same machine! 8080 is the default port for both. This behaviour may change in future releases.

On the robot:

./botd_client.py --remote 192.168.1.88:8080 sherbert_lemon.json

NOTE: 192.168.1.88 should be replaced with the appropriate IP address of the botd server. 8080 is the default server port, but you may choose to change it using both the --port <port> directive and this :<port> on every client.
