Unofficial Python SDK for Sphero

A driver for sphero 2.0 written entirely in python. Currently it provides access to most sphero api calls as described in the Orbotix Documentation <https://github.com/orbotix/DeveloperResources>.

INSTALL:

git clone https://github.com/darin-costello/spheropy.git

cd spheropy

pip install -e ./

EXAMPLES:

from spheropy.Sphero import Sphero
with Sphero("NAME", "BLUETOOTH ID") as s:
    response = s.ping()
    print(response)
    s.roll(80, 0)
    s.set_heading(90)
    s.set_color(204,153,255)

import spheropy.Sphero import Sphero
    found = Sphero.find_spheros()
    for name in found:
        print name
