Software for the pixel grid.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== pixel.py ==
|
||
|
|
||
|
This software will turn an 8x8 image or animated image (as read by the PIL
|
||
|
library) into servo commands for a pixel grid.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usage:
|
||
|
pixel.py [-h] [-t] [-v] [-c] [-d delay] <files>
|
||
|
|
||
|
-h Display usage string
|
||
|
-t Test mode
|
||
|
This sets all pixels to 0, then to 255, then back to 0.
|
||
|
-v View mode
|
||
|
Outputs to the screen only. Does not try to open any devices.
|
||
|
-c Calibration mode
|
||
|
Sets all outputs to 1500us. Useful for assembling the motors.
|
||
|
-d n Sets inter-image delay to n seconds
|
||
|
|
||
|
This command will display all files in sequence, with a specified delay in
|
||
|
between each image. Animated formats will be played once through, frame by
|
||
|
frame, with a fixed inter-frame delay.

With the addition of the ability to specify the baud rate when opening the
|
||
|
serial port.
