sensehat-node-ipc

A Node.js package to read sensor data from the Raspberry Pi Sense HAT through IPC.

Installation on Raspberry Pi

Assuming you have python and pip installed.

System dependencies

sudo apt install sense-hat python3-rtimulib libatlas-base-dev

Install

npm install

Notes

Need protobuf version 3.20.* not newer or its unhappy (ubuntu proto compiler out of date?). The python sense-hat package depends on RTIMULib so we need --system-site-packages when we run pip so the venv can see it. libatlas-base-dev for a numpy dependency iirc. ymmv.
