Tactigon IronBoy

This package enables to comunicate with IronBoy using a Bluetooth to UART device such as Adafruit Bluefruit LE Uart.

This package can be used alongside with Tactigon Gear and Tactigon Speech libraries to drive IronBoy robot using gesture and "edge" voice command detection.

Prerequisites

In order to use the Tactigon Arduino Braccio library you need:

• Python version: following versions has been used and tested. It is STRONGLY recommended to use these ones depending on platform.
  • Win10: 3.8.7

Installing

Install and update using pip:

pip install tactigon-ironboy

A Simple Example

import time
from tactigon_ironboy import IronBoy, IronBoyCommand, IronBoyConfig

if __name__ == "__main__":
    cfg = IronBoyConfig("TactigonIronBoy", "FE:E2:2B:47:5D:80")

    with IronBoy(cfg) as ironboy:
        while True:
            if not ironboy.connected:
                print("connecting...")
                time.sleep(1)
                continue

            print("Connected")

            # Do 5 steps forward
            ironboy.send_command(IronBoyCommand.WALK_FWD, 5)

            while ironboy.executing:
                time.sleep(0.1)

            # Do celebration!
            ironboy.send_command(IronBoyCommand.CELEBRATE)

            while ironboy.executing:
                time.sleep(0.1)
            
            break
