Test code for the PicoBots by 4tronix

Primary LanguageC++

##Install

Enable SPI

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install python-dev python-pip

sudo pip install spidev

Put both nrf24.py and server.py in a folder and sudo python server.py

##Aim:

The aim of the code is for the Pico bot to generate a random address (pipe), setup a recv pipe and then transmit its address to the Pi The Pi will receive this on a fixed address, in the form of "NEW 12ab12ab12". Once it receives this it will reply to that address with the character "6". Once the bot receives a "6" this turns on the red LED underneath

##Pico:

Mine have been modified with an RGB led underneath with

Red: D6 Green: D16 (A2) Blue: D17 (A3)

White LED: D9

##Raspberry Pi:
