rover

Information

Package	rover
Description	A node.js client for controlling BrookStone Rover 2.0s
Node Version	>= 0.4

Disclaimer

This library is still under rapid development. The API will likely change as I continue to reverse engineer the rover. Use at your own risk.

Usage

var rover = require('rover');
var async = require('async');
 
var client = rover.createClient();
 
client.forward(cb);
client.backward(cb);
client.right(cb);
client.left(cb);
 
client.cameraUp(30, cb); // 30 deg up
client.cameraDown(30, cb); // 30 deg down
 
client.config(function(err, cfg){
  // get all device config info
})
 
client.config('power', function(err, power){
  // get specific field from device config
});
 
client.networks(function(err, wifiNetworks){
  // list all wifi networks the rover can pick up
});
