Sensorium is a library for Makeblock's rj25 mainboards. It includes mCore, Orion, Auriga and Megapi, MegaPiPro, and Arduino is also supported!
You can use it in browser and node enviroment.
npm install sensorium --save
Include the source /browser/sensorium.js in the root directory of project.
Actually you also need install sensorium-server as a proxy server.
npm install sensorium-server -g
Make sure your mainboards connecting to the your computer, and run sensorium-server with following command in your teminal:
ss
Then create a HTML page in the root directory, index.html for example, and type in the following script:
<script src="./browser/sensorium.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/socket.io/2.0.3/socket.io.js"></script>
<script>
//firstly initialize
var sensorium = new Sensorium();
var mcore = sensorium.createMcore();
//secondly set transport through `socket.io` like this:
var socket = io.connect('http://localhost:8800');
socket.on('sensor2web', function (data) {
sensorium.doReceived(JSON.parse(data));
});
sensorium.setSender(function(buf) {
socket.emit('web2sensor', { buf: JSON.stringify(buf), sensor: 'None' });
});
</script>
<script>
// set speed and run the motor.
mcore.DcMotor(1).speed(200).run();
// read ultrasonic sensor's value
mcore.Ultrasonic(3).getData((val) => console.log(val));
</script>
Firstly, install the dependencies:
npm install sensorium --save-dev
npm install serialport --save-dev
Touch a js file just like test.js, type in codes as follows:
var Sensorium = require("sensorium");
var SerialPort = require('serialport');
var sensorium = new Sensorium();
// Visit [serialport](https://www.npmjs.com/package/serialport) for detail usage
var serialPort = new SerialPort('/dev/ttyUSB0', { baudRate:115200 });
serialPort.on('open', function() {
sensorium.setSender(function(buf) {
serialPort.write(buf);
});
serialPort.on('data', function(buff) {
sensorium.doReceived(buff);
});
});
// optional mainboards are 'Mcore', 'Auriga', 'MegaPi', 'Orion', 'MegaPiPro', 'Arduino'
var auriga = sensorium.createAuriga();
// run DcMotor
auriga.DcMotor(1).speed(200).run();
// read ultrasonic sensor's value
auriga.Ultrasonic(3).getData().then(val => console.log(val));
Make sure your mainboards connecting to the your computer, and run srcipt with node:
node test.js
