Poppy
This section is about the Poppy robots, especially the Poppy Ergo Jr.
The goal is to pilot a Poppy Ergo Jr with a smartphone using the Atlas toolkit.
Installation of the Python library : pip install poppy-ergo-jr
.
On the Raspberry Pi Zero the installation for Python 2 failed due to a memory error (probably not enough memory) during the installation(/compilation) of the
scipy
module.
For the Python 2 installation, you have to explicitly install the
wheel
package, and also following OS packages: libfreetype6-dev libpng-dev pkg-config
.
For the Python 3 installation, you may have to install the
libatlas-base-dev
OS package (not a Python package to install through pip), even if the installation seems to succeed. You have then to relaunch the installation.
