Mind+
Mind+ is a visual programming software that enables anyone to make fast prototypes intuitively and enjoy hardware hacking even without programming background. Just drag and drop blocks, set up parameters and connect modules after building the circuit. Then your DIY project is good to go!
For users, Mind+ is an easy-to-use visual tool for generating codes. And for the developer, myBlockly is a text box containing the code that the user has done.
When users drag and drop blocks, codes are generated in the text box.
- Enter Mind+ and select Python mode
- Select Extensions
- Select User Library and enter keywords (elephant, mycobot, pi) in the search box to get the relevant user library of elephant robotics, then click Return to back to the operation interface.
- Slide the left command section to the bottom to find the user library for Elephant Robotics, and drag the blocks to perform the relevant operations.
- A simple sample for robotic arm:
