Swift Playgrounds interface to Thymio II

Hello,

Are there any plans to supply a Swift Playground giving access to Thymio II devices?

Thanks for your help!

Use of ThymioSuite without Bonjour Service

Tue, 17 Mar 2020 15:17:44 +0000

Hey there

We want to deploy ThymioSuite silently to computers in multiple schools. Many of our softwares install ancient versions of Bonjour for no reason. Therefore we use scripts to check and remove Bonjour installations on all of our devices. When i open ThymioSuite without Bonjour, there is a red message stating that no robot could be found because Bonjour is missing. Unfortunately i don't have a robot available to test if a direct USB connection to the robot would work at this point.

We'd have to set up an exception in our BonjourUninstaller if ThymioSuite really requires it. Has anyone tried to use ThymioSuite(direct USB connection to robot)without Bonjour?

Thanks in advance!

use dbus with ssh?

Mon, 18 Feb 2019 15:10:16 +0000

Hi,

I successfully connected my RaspberryPi to my Thymio II.
Now I can control the Thymio with a simple Python script.

On the RaspberryPi I just run the following command to start asebamedulla.
Terminal 1:

asebamedulla "ser:device=/dev/ttyACM0"

Then I run my Python script.
Terminal 2:

python test.py

However, now I want to do this from my Mac with ssh.
When I do the same thing I get the following error:

pi@raspberrypi:~/Desktop $ python test.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "test.py", line 48, in  network = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object('ch.epfl.mobots.Aseba', '/'), dbus_interface='ch.epfl.mobots.AsebaNetwork') File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 241, in get_object follow_name_owner_changes=follow_name_owner_changes) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 248, in __init__ self._named_service = conn.activate_name_owner(bus_name) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 180, in activate_name_owner self.start_service_by_name(bus_name) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 278, in start_service_by_name 'su', (bus_name, flags))) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 651, in call_blocking message, timeout) dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name ch.epfl.mobots.Aseba was not provided by any .service files

Does someone knows why and how I can fix this?

Thank you. :)

Edit:
Im using this code as an example:

blockly with Aseba 1.6 on linux

Mon, 21 Jan 2019 16:19:25 +0000

Dear all,

I see on the web site that the web bridge enabling to program thymio with blockly is not yet available on linux…

How far are we from there ? I ask because if there's a chance of getting it working by easy hacks and/or using the right commands/instructions, I'm willing to try ! In this case where should I look for documentation on those topics ?

Thanks for any hint !

Fedora (arm) 28 and up

Sun, 07 Oct 2018 10:24:16 +0000

Hello,

I am running Fedora 28 on my desktop and on my Raspberry Pi . I see there is a Aseba version for Fedora 22; but Fedora 22 is 3 years out of date and not maintained any more. (Fedora 29 is coming out soon as well).
Do you provide any other way, like another IDE (or Aseba for Fedora 28 (arm)) to program the Thymio?
Thanks for considering this question.

Playground: opposite represantation of Thymio's states on a virtual Thymio

Wed, 25 Jul 2018 16:14:41 +0000

I have observed that, when I use a virtual Thymio with a playground (e.g:thymio-discovery-otter), left states of Thymio are represented from the right circular leds and right states are represented from the left circular leds.
Click on the link below to see an example:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OKOGbrU4t9zg-qiUQarQJWml2NctQN7F/view?usp=sharing
Same thing happens when I use Blockly.
Is there any posibility this, to be corrected?
Thank you…

I’m developing a simulator for Thymio. I need to know technical specifications of Thymio like type of proximity sensor their range and manufacturer for example, or wheels diameter in order to develop the simulator. Is there a technical documentation available, which I can use?

How good is the accessibility for hacking, it's easy enough to hack thymio into an arduino.

connect my thymio to an Arduino board

Tue, 27 Mar 2018 09:12:06 +0000

hi is it any possibility to have the communication between my arduino board to thymio II ? , i make a driver for my thymio and my arduino board just with connecting tx and rx from arduino board to rx and tx of thymio

Is that possible? thymio memory storage?

Mon, 19 Mar 2018 15:12:37 +0000

Hello People

Is it possible to programm the buttons on the thymio in a way, that pushed button sequence gets stored in memory and later executed by a certain other button?

With this storage feature it would be possible to emulate "Bee-Bots" circuit which would be very nice for young children making first steps with pattern recognisation and the like.

So simple Question: Can Thymio2 store and memorize pushed button sequences and can these stored informations be used to let Thymio run a certain programm with them?

cheers

How to import code that is written on the Thymio but lost on the PC

Sun, 18 Mar 2018 12:35:57 +0000

So here's the thing: in my monstruous stupidity, I saved a new file on my main file without noticing, thus losing my whole code… but, luckily the code is still loaded on my Thymio. So, is there a way to load it back into my PC? Instead of having to write it again?
