Rpi controlling the pic : how do they communicate?
Posted: Sun Oct 22, 2017 5:49 pm
After playing a while with the demo sketch, I would like to move on with controlling Spirit by Python and OpenCV. I’ve browsed the base and demo sketch and header files for clues on the connection between the pic and the rpi, but couldn’t find anything. So I hope someone can give me some hints.
- Can I use the standard serial ports (Rx/Tx) or is the Spirit configured in another way?
- Do I need to code a sketch for the pic receiving commands from the Rpi ,translate those into the base/Arduino (servo)motor commands and sending sensor data to the Rpi? Or is there already a base function somewhere in the library?
Hoping for some direction here!
