# R2-Dualsense2

This code implements the control of a double joint robot using Sony's Dualsense (PS5) controller. The robot is visualized using the Streamlit library and is perfectly responsive. This project is written in [Pure Python](https://github.com/BrianLesko/R2-Dualsense2/blob/main/app.py) in under 100 lines of code. Created by Brian Lesko for Learning Purposes.

 



 

## Dependencies

This code uses the following libraries:

- `streamlit`: for building the user interface.

- `numpy`: for creating arrays.

- `matplotlib`: for saving image data

- `io`: for saving image data

- `hidapi`: for accessing usb connections on the host device

 

## Usage

Run the following commands:

```

pip install --upgrade streamlit libusb hidapi matplotlib modern_robotics

streamlit run REPLACE

```

This will start the local Streamlit server, and you can access the chatbot by opening a web browser and navigating to `http://localhost:8501`.

 

## How it Works

The app as follows:

1. The hidapi library is used to initiate a connection to the PS5 controller

2. The dualsense class is used to decode the received bytes

3. The robot class is used to plot the robot figure

4. Streamlit is used to display the robot
