Repo for storing code related to the foosball table at Telluride 2018. AKA the best foosball table ever!

Table API

Requirements

You must install pyserial to communicate with the Foosball table:

pip install pyserial

This package is known to interfere with the package serial. Uninstall the latter to avoid issues:

pip uninstall serial

Importing the API from another directory

To import the API from another directory, use the following code:

import sys
sys.path.insert(0, 'relative/path/to/table_api')
from sensiball import Sensiball

Examples

table_api/examples provides several examples showing how to use the python API to communicate with the Foosball table.

Flashing the Arduinos

• To flash the Arduino Nanos, open table_api/slave/slave.ino and edit the lines:

#define SLAVE_ADDRESS 14 // 8/10/12/14 for Goalie/Defender/Midfield/Forward
#define SLAVE_MODE    1  // 0/1 for Translation/Rotation

• To flash the Arduino Mega, open table_api/master/master.ino. Master can be flashed without editing.
