2.3 KiB
Fork of http://www.jraf.org/static/maven/sites/jlibibuddy/.
JLibIBuddy
A Java library to control an i-Buddy (a 3-inch tall blinking and moving USB figureine, see http://www.i-buddy.com/ ). Currently it is only supported / tested under Windows.
Needs Java libusb / libusb-win32
Original maven repo http://www.jraf.org/static/maven/2/org/jraf/jlibibuddy/
We need to create backup archives for artifacts org.jraf:jlibibuddy:1.1 (see and the sourceforge) and libusbjava:libusbjava-native-win32:0.2.3.0 which are hosted on a private maven repository. The Libusbjava code have been forked:
tedious to get libusb working while porting to linux, use other project instead:
still this git fork should once be done
and we have te maven artifact in gradle
Installation
For linux, use libusb?
Usage
Using the library is very simple as shown by this example:
import org.jraf.jlibibuddy.IBuddy;
import org.jraf.jlibibuddy.IBuddyException;
import org.jraf.jlibibuddy.IBuddyUtils;
(...)
// get the i-Buddy
IBuddy iBuddy = IBuddy.getIBuddy();
// send some low level commands directly
iBuddy.sendHeadColor(IBuddy.Color.RED);
iBuddy.sendHeart(true);
// use IBuddyUtils to send higher levels commands
IBuddyUtils.flap(iBuddy, 400, 7);
(...)
