Reset Arduino Micro via python serial

reset_arduino.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

import serial
port='/dev/ttyACM0' #adjust this in case your device differs
ser = serial.Serial() #open serial connection
ser.port=port #setting the port accordingly

#in case your usual baudrate isn't 9600 reset will not work, therefore we will open a resetable connection
#thanks to mattvenn.net for suggesting to add this step!
ser.baudrate=9600
ser.open(); ser.close()

ser.baudrate=1200 # set the reset baudrate
ser.open(); ser.close()
#don't forget to sleep some reset time
