kandi X-RAY | robot-arm Summary

robot-arm is a Python library typically used in Internet of Things (IoT), Raspberry Pi, Arduino applications. robot-arm has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. However robot-arm build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.

G-Robot Arm is a GUI application to control the cebekit Robot Arm. This is designed for use with the Raspberry Pi running Linux, but should work with any Linux computer. The robot arm used for testing is the Maplin robot arm, but I believe it should also work with the Cebek ModelC-6985 available from CPC Farnell. The robot arm is also available through other retailers, often called an Education Robot Arm or similar, although they sometimes come with a handheld remote control rather than the USB interface. The robot arm needs the USB interface which can be purchased separately if it was not already included. The usb robot arm comes with Windows software only. This software has been written to allow the robot arm to be controlled from other computers, in particular Linux based computers such as the Raspberry Pi educational computer. This software is provided free of charge under the GPL version 3 license which allows you to view and edit the source code and redistribute as along as you make any changes available as open source software through the same license. The application is similar to the remote control software supplied for Windows, but only handling the realtime functionality. This application is written using a similar layout and key bindings to the Windows software, but does not currently have the record and playback functionality. This page provides some of the information for developers wanting to understand the software. If you just want to set the software up and run it then see the install instructions further down or at The code is well documented within the source code, but this explains some of the high-level information and reasons for why some of the things are delivered as they are.

I can't get it to work. Below is the code for the Dashboard and next for Adverts. Then the json files

            Install robot-arm

            The instructions are provided for Linux only. The application has not been tested on other operating systems and is unlikely to be until much later in the development. The program uses Python which is currently available in two main versions: version 2.* and version 3.* (referred to as Python 2 and Python 3). Python 3 is the preferred distribution, however on some Linux distrutions, the install for Python 3 can be harder, so instructions for python 2 are included.
            The Raspberry Pi is the easiest platform to install this on as it includes Python 3 Pygame as default. Instructions are therefore provided for Python 3 only. There is however an additional step that is required to provide permissions to access the device.
            The pre-requisites for the application are: pygame, libusb and pyusb, but these then also have their own dependancies (particularly pygame for Python 3). These instructions are for Debian (or Ubuntu) based distributions the commands may be different for other distributions.
