Play with Python

If you want to program in python, then you will need to learn some basic Python programming skills and basic knowledge of Raspberry Pi, please configure the Raspberry Pi first according to 1. Quick Guide on Python.

• 1. Quick Guide on Python
  • 1. What Do We Need?
  • 2. Installing the OS
  • 3. Power Supply for Raspberry Pi (Important)
  • 4. Setting Up Your Raspberry Pi
  • 5. Install All the Modules(Important)
  • 6. Check I2C and SPI Interface
  • 7. Servo Adjust(Importtant)

As soon as the assembly is completed, you need to calibrate the PiDog to prevent it from damaging the servo if there is a slight deviation in the assembly.

• 2. Calibrate the PiDog

You can also have PiDog achieve the following project effects.

• 3. Fun Python Projects
  • 1. Wake Up
  • 2. Function Demonstration
  • 3. Patrol
  • 4. Response
  • 5. Rest
  • 6. Be Picked Up
  • 7. Face Track
  • 8. Push Up
  • 9. Howling
  • 10. Balance
  • 11. Play PiDog with Keyboard
  • 12. Play PiDog with APP
    • Control Pidog with app
    • Autostart on Boot
    • APP Program Configuration
  • 13. Ball Track

Then you may want to master its basic functions, or write some fun examples.

If you are familiar with Python programming, you can find examples of PiDog’s basic functions in the ~/pidog/basic_examples directory.
