Golang framework for robotics, drones, and the Internet of Things (IoT)

arduino.go

package main

import (
	"time"

	"gobot.io/x/gobot"
	"gobot.io/x/gobot/drivers/gpio"
	"gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/firmata"
)

func main() {
	firmataAdaptor := firmata.NewAdaptor("/dev/ttyACM0")
	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()
}

audio.go

// +build example
//
// Do not build by default.

package main

import (
	"time"

	"gobot.io/x/gobot"
	"gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/audio"
)

func main() {
	e := audio.NewAdaptor()
	laser := audio.NewDriver(e, "./examples/laser.mp3")

	work := func() {
		gobot.Every(2*time.Second, func() {
			laser.Play()
		})
	}

	robot := gobot.NewRobot("soundBot",
		[]gobot.Connection{e},
		[]gobot.Device{laser},
		work,
	)

	robot.Start()
}

sphero.go

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"time"

	"gobot.io/x/gobot"
	"gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/sphero"
)

func main() {
	adaptor := sphero.NewAdaptor("/dev/rfcomm0")
	driver := sphero.NewSpheroDriver(adaptor)

	work := func() {
		gobot.Every(3*time.Second, func() {
			driver.Roll(30, uint16(gobot.Rand(360)))
		})
	}

	robot := gobot.NewRobot("sphero",
		[]gobot.Connection{adaptor},
		[]gobot.Device{driver},
		work,
	)

	robot.Start()
}

You can use the entire Gobot framework as shown in the examples above, or you can pick and choose from the various Gobot packages to control hardware with nothing but pure idiomatic Golang code.

the audio.go being an impementation example
