Description: rcpy: Python 3 Interface for the Robotics Cape on the Beaglebone Black and the Beaglebone Blue
        ==============================================================================================
        
        **Release 0.4**
        
        This is a Python library with bindings for some of the functionality of
        the `Robotics Cape
        library <https://github.com/StrawsonDesign/Robotics_Cape_Installer>`__.
        
        We only support Python 3, and are not interested in Python 2 at all.
        
        Not all functions are supported. Currently supported functions are:
        
        1. MPU9250
        2. PWM motors
        3. Servos and ESCs
        4. Encoders
        5. LEDs
        6. Buttons
        7. GPIO inputs
        
        You might also be interested in the ``pyctrl`` package
        (`github <https://github.com/mcdeoliveira/pyctrl>`__,
        `PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=pyctrl>`__).
        
        Preliminaries
        -------------
        
        You will need the `Robotics Cape
        library <https://github.com/StrawsonDesign/Robotics_Cape_Installer>`__
        version 0.3.4 or higher. Depending on the image you have on your
        Beaglebone Black or Blue it might already be installed! You can check if
        it is installed and the current version by running
        
        ::
        
            rc_version
        
        on your Beaglebone. If the command ``rc_version`` is not found type
        
        ::
        
            sudo apt-get update
            sudo apt-get install roboticscape
        
        to install or
        
        ::
        
            sudo apt-get update
            sudo apt-get upgrade roboticscape
        
        to upgrade from an older version. For more details see these
        `instructions <http://strawsondesign.com/#!manual-install>`__.
        
        You must also have python3 installed. If you have not installed python3
        yet type
        
        ::
        
            sudo apt install python3 python3-pip
        
        to install python3 and pip3.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Starting with version 0.3, ``rcpy`` is available from
        `PyPI <https://pypi.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=rcpy>`__. Just
        type
        
        ::
        
            sudo pip3 install rcpy
        
        to download and install.
