This version was originally released on September 8, 2020, on the eave of CircuitPython day. It is compatible with CircuitPython v5.3.1. The CircuitPython-v5.3.1 branch contains an archive of the python files and the accompanying examples for this code.

Changes:

  • Code is much more efficient and leaner
  • Code handles unforeseen errors better
  • The edited version of the CLUE library has been absorbed by the Cutebot library
  • The CLUE and Cutebot libraries are imported by using from jisforjt_cutebot_clue import cutebot, clue
  • Sensor functions are now properties and as such parenthesis (i.e. round brackets) are no longer required when calling the functions
  • Sensor functions have been renamed - all letters are lowercase and the prefix "get" has been removed from all of them

Usage:

from jisforjt_cutebot_clue import cutebot, clue

cutebot.playTone(tone, duration)
 # Parameters:
    # tone (int) - the frequency of the tones/music notes you want to play
    # duration (float) - the number of seconds you want to play the tone

cutebot.headlights(whichLight, colors)
cutebot.pixels(whichLight, colors)
 # Parameters:
    # whichLight (integer) - there are four states to choose from
        # 0 = Sets both lights to off
        # 1 = Sets left light only
        # 2 = Sets right light only
        # 3 = Sets both lights
    # colors (array of three integers) - RGB color that will be displayed
        # colors[0] = red
        # colors[1] = green
        # colors[2] = blue

cutebot.lightsOff()        # Turn off all LEDs

cutebot.motors(leftSpeed, rightSpeed)
 # Parameters:
    # leftSpeed (int) - speed of the left motor (Speed Range: full backwards = -100, stop = 0, and full forwards = 100)
    # rightSpeed (int) - speed of the right motor (Speed Range: full backwards = -100, stop = 0, and full forwards = 100)

cutebot.motorsOff()      # stops Cutebot's motors

cutebot.servoMaxAngleInDegrees = 180         # Set to your servos' maximum degree angle
cutebot.servos(whichServo, angleInDegrees)
 # Parameters:
    # whichServo (integer) - there are three states to choose from
        # 1 = S1 Servo (0x05)
        # 2 = S2 Servo (0x06)
        # 3 = S1 and S2 Servos
    # angleInDegrees (integer) - the angle in degrees that the servo(s) should be set to

cutebot.centerServos()      # centers both servos

cutebot.p1          # Returns a value between 0 and 65535 from the P1 sensor extension pins
cutebot.p2          # Returns a value between 0 and 65535 from the P2 sensor extension pins
cutebot.sonar        # Returns the distance between the ultrasound sensor and the object in front of it in centimeters (cm)
cutebot.tracking        # Returns two true or false values - first for the left line sensor and second for the right line sensor.
