cyberbrick-driver

name	cyberbrick-driver
description	Universal driver for CyberBrick devices (Mini T Tank, etc.). Invoke when user wants to control movement, fire, turret, or run hardware tests.

CyberBrick Driver

This skill provides comprehensive control for CyberBrick hardware devices, specifically optimized for the Mini T Tank but compatible with other configurations using the standard pinout.

Usage

The driver script cyberbrick_driver.py is located in this directory. You can invoke it using python3 with various subcommands.

Commands

1. Movement

• Forward: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py forward <speed> <duration>

  • speed: 0-100 (Default: 0)
  • duration: Seconds (Default: 2.0)

• Backward: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py backward <speed> <duration>

  • speed: 0-100
  • duration: Seconds (Default: 2.0)

• Turn Left: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py left <speed> <duration>

  • speed: 0-100
  • duration: Seconds (Default: 2.0)

• Turn Right: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py right <speed> <duration>

  • speed: 0-100
  • duration: Seconds (Default: 2.0)

2. Actions

• Fire: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py fire

  • Triggers the firing mechanism (push-pull action).

• Turret: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py turret <elevation>

  • elevation: Angle 0-180 (90 is neutral).

3. System

• Test: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py test

  • Runs a full self-test sequence of all hardware functions.

• Dance: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py dance

  • Performs a dance sequence (Turn Left/Right, Turret Shake, Move Back/Forth).

• Stop: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py stop

  • Immediately stops all motors.

• Reset: python3 cyberbrick_driver.py reset

  • Soft-resets the remote controller to manual mode.
