Anyone looking for a graphic interface for controlling the arm in Linux (or potentially other platforms) should take a look here:

Thanks for this! I've taken the code and turned it into a class which can be used to directly access the arm through code, rather than requiring a file for input - all the code is available on http://mattdyson.org/projects/robotarm/ and links back here, there's a video on that page of my project as well - controlling the arm using an Xbox 360 controller.
ReplyDeleteMatt, thanks for linking back and showing how the code has evolved. I've included a more promininent link here: http://python-poly.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/useful-extension.html so people can find your code easier! Nice work.
