About Romi Web Service

This NodeJS package works in conjunction with the WPILibPi Raspberry Pi Image and WPILib WebSocket extensions (available in 2021 and up) to support writing WPILib robot programs and running them on low cost Pololu Romi robots.

WPILib Hardware Support

  • Onboard LEDs and pushbuttons exposed as DIO channels 0-3
  • 2 motors (left/right) exposed as PWM channels 0/1
  • 2 encoders (left/right) exposed as Encoders with channels 4/5 and 6/7
  • 3-axis gyro exposed as a SimDevice
  • 3-axis accelerometer exposed as a BuiltInAccelerometer
  • Battery voltage reporting

Getting Started

See https://docs.wpilib.org/en/stable/docs/romi-robot/index.html for information on how to assemble the Romi kit and image both the Raspberry Pi and Romi control board.

What's Changed In This Release (since 1.1.4)

  • [bugfix] Cease heartbeat when operating with severe network lag. Uses DS packets as a means to detect potential latency issues. This fix, together with fixes in prior versions, should solve most of the runaway robot issues.
