Gobot - The 1.1 Release
It was just a few weeks ago since the release of version 1.0 of Gobot.
Thanks to the enthusiasm and work of our community, we've just had our 1.1 release already.
We are now up to 1500 commits from 56 contributors, and we're going strong.
Here are a few highlights from this new release:
ESP8266 and wireless Arduino
We now offer support for the ESP8266 wireless microcontroller.
Check out a short code sample:
package main import ( "time" "gobot.io/x/gobot" "gobot.io/x/gobot/drivers/gpio" "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/firmata" ) func main() { firmataAdaptor := firmata.NewTCPAdaptor("192.168.1.27:3030") led := gpio.NewLedDriver(firmataAdaptor, "13") work := func() { gobot.Every(1*time.Second, func() { led.Toggle() }) } robot := gobot.NewRobot("bot", []gobot.Connection{firmataAdaptor}, []gobot.Device{led}, work, ) robot.Start() }
You can also use the new firmata.TCPAdaptor()
with a WiFi-connected Arduino.
New I2C Drivers
Thanks to contributors @elopio and @schmidtw we now have support for the following new I2C devices:
- BMP180 barometer/temperature sensor
- L3GD20H gyroscope
- SHT3X temperature/humidity sensor
Parrot Bebop
We have several improvements and bugfixes for the Parrot Bebop and Bebop 2, including support for the latest firmware and RTP video streaming.
