Cattoy

First, let's import Cylon:

var Cylon = require('../..');

Now that we have Cylon imported, we can start defining our robot

Cylon.robot({

Let's define the connections and devices:

  connections: [
    { name: 'digispark', adaptor: 'digispark'},
    { name: 'leapmotion', adaptor: 'leapmotion', port: '127.0.0.1:6437' }
  ],

  devices: [
    {name: 'servo1', driver: 'servo', pin: 0, connection: 'digispark'},
    {name: 'servo2', driver: 'servo', pin: 1, connection: 'digispark'},
    {name: 'leapmotion', driver: 'leapmotion', connection: 'leapmotion'}
  ],

Now that Cylon knows about the necessary hardware we're going to be using, we'll tell it what work we want to do:

  work: function(my) {
    my['x'] = 90;
    my['z'] = 90;

    my.leapmotion.on('hand', function(hand) {
      my['x'] = hand.palmX.fromScale(-300, 300).toScale(30, 150);
      my['z'] = hand.palmZ.fromScale(-300, 300).toScale(30, 150);
    });

    every(100, function() {
      my.servo1.angle(my['x']);
      my.servo2.angle(my['z']);

      console.log("Current Angle: " + my.servo1.currentAngle() + ", " + my.servo2.currentAngle());
    });

Now that our robot knows what work to do, and the work it will be doing that hardware with, we can start it:

}).start()
