Getting Started
jaraco.nxt provides a message class for sending and receiving messages with the Lego NXT device. First pair the device with your PC by following the instructions included with the device. Then, determine the COM port to which it is connected. The hello world example is to retrieve the battery voltage. You can download the source for that example. You may also browse the other examples.
For more information, read the docstrings of the modules in the packages.
Modules of interest are
jaraco.nxt.messages: implements the messages defined by the NXT Bluetooth protocol.
jaraco.nxt.controller: demonstrates how to link input from a joystick to messages controlling the motors. Uses jaraco.input.
