toio-raspi-edge-controller: A TypeScript repository from Kei18

toio edge controller

An edge controller working on raspberry pi to control toio robots, which receives instructions via socket.io. This repo is based on @Kei18/toio.js-raspi and used in robot demos of SSSP, together with toio-mrmp.

Setup

sudo bash ./install.sh

Start edge controller

sudo node ./src/edge_controller.js --addr={YOUR HOST PC}.local -k 1  # number of robots

You can find details for parameters with:

sudo node ./src/edge_controller.js --help

Send instruction

Instruction takes the form of JSON that includes:

agent index of connected toio robots, starting from 0
operation that specifies which function performs
parmas, a list consisting of arguments of operation

For example, cube.move(100, 100, 1000) in toio.js should be sent as follows:

{
    agent: 0,
    operation: "move",
    params: [100, 100, 1000]
}
