NavX with Python?
 

Hi!

We are thinking about using the NavX to help with autonomous and were wondering if it is supported by RobotPy? I found in the documentation that you use gyroscope but I just want to make sure that it does indeed work.

Thanks!

From what I hear virtuald is porting it over. It should be ready soon

Even in C++/Java WPILib does not have builtin support for the NavX, you have to install separate software.

I've ported their software over to python and it looks like it works, though I haven't been able to test it comprehensively yet. I'll be polishing it and make a formal release soon.

If you want to look at it, it's in the mxp branch of robotpy-wpilib-utlities: https://github.com/robotpy/robotpy-w...ities/tree/mxp .. requires master version of robotpy-wpilib.

NavX support is now available in the 2016.1.1 release.
