Welcome to Py4bot project

Introduction

Py4bot (Python framework for mutli-legs robots) is a free python framework dedicated to control multi-legs robots, like hexapods. It implements IK for 3 and 4 DoF legs, and new IKs can be added in a very easy way. It should even be possible to mix legs with different DoF on the same robot (untested).

With Py4bot comes a powerfull remote control engine, allowing user to control robots from different kind of controllers, like gamepads, joysticks or home-made smart remotes. An API will soon be available to control robots from http.

Py4bot is entirely written in python, so should run on any plateform running a python interpreter. The main target is a BeagleBone Black, running Debian.

Py4bot is not a commercial project: I develop it on my free time, because it is fun. So, I don't make support for professional usage. This does not mean that it can't be used by pros, but be aware that things can go wrong, and my responsibility can't be engaged is such case.

Enjoy!
