A Python/REST interface for GPIO circuits running on the Raspberry Pi

Python Interface for GPIO Circuits

This package provides two related capabilities. First, it provides a high-level, event-driven Python interface for GPIO circuits running on the Raspberry Pi. Sensors, motors, LEDs, switches, and many other components are covered. An example is shown below (click to watch; Python code here):

Remote Control of GPIO Circuits via REST/HTML/JavaScript

Second, this package enables remote control of GPIO circuits via REST APIs invoked from HTML/JavaScript front-ends. Want to control your circuit remotely from your phone? Look no further. This package auto-generates HTML/JavaScript for GPIO circuits based on Material Design for Bootstrap. These HTML/JavaScript elements can be embedded in full web pages for remote control of the circuit. The remote control screen for the Freenove Smart Car is shown below:

The smart car is built from the same components (sensors, motors, LEDs, etc.) listed above, making development quite straightforward. As another example, consider the 3D-printed robotic arm that I designed for the car.
