If you have read my earlier post you know that as a team we have switched the programming language our robot is coded in from LabVIEW to Python. Currently, this decision seems to have been a very good one, as it was fairly easy to set up, us having only been required to install Python and one software library on the robot, and the same on the computer we use for programming. It also has a fairly small learning curve, given you have some programming experience. There have been some hiccups, but they generally didn’t have anything to do with Python, such as the robot radio not connecting to the computer as expected. Overall I am quite satisfied with my experience of using Python to program bIrobots 2017 season robot, Caroline.
