Python libraries for using Orion via serial


#1

I just started playing around with Makeblock + Raspberry Pi via the MeShield and I started on some python libraries that make it really easy to program against the board. Feedback is appreciated: https://github.com/jafletch/makeblock-serial

Very interested in trying your programs, I’m also tinkering with an Orion/Raspberry project. What OS are you using on the Pi and what Pi are you using? If you don’t mind.

I have been using a Pi2 running the latest Raspbian OS. I also have an older PI but I haven’t tried it on that one yet.

I’m presently working on projectproject, a small robot using four motors, I’m using a Raspberry Pi B, Orion, MeShield interface and the latest version of Raspbian. Hopefully I’ll have time to test your software within the next week.

Great, please let me know what you think! I just added support for the motors that I have so hopefully that works for you.
