ABOUT

• App: spacebrew-python-examples
• Team: labatrockwell, phooky (github)

Description:

• This project is a set of tools and examples for interfacing to SpaceBrew through python code.
• The spacebrewInterface is a python API that allows easy communication with SpaceBrew.
• The spacebrewLink is a dynamic python tool that makes sharing variables between SpaceBrew and python code as seemless as possible.
• The opencvBackground is a openCV based background difference detector (motion sensor) that supports a region of interest (ROI) that can be remotely configured and viewed over SpaceBrew.

• In Progress

SETUP

Hardware Requirements:

• Machine capable of running python, node (spacebrew), and for the opencvBackground, OpenCV must be installed.

Dependencies:

• python websocket-client library
  • 'pip install websocket-client'
  • Be aware that there is another python package called 'websocket' that uses the same package name. If you have websocket installed you will need to uninstall it before installing websocket-client. (You can uninstall if with 'pip uninstall websocket'.)
• python feedparser
  • 'pip install feedparser'
• python opencv
  • Debian: sudo apt-get install python-opencv
  • OS X Macports: sudo port install opencv +python27 +universal
  • OS X Brew: brew install.... (I don't really know)
• opencv dev files
  • Debian: sudo apt-get install libopencv-dev
  • OS X Macports: sudo port install opencv +python27 +universal
  • OS X Brew: ???
