lold - LolShield Daemon Copyright (C) 2014 Anton Pirogov Licensed under the MIT License ---- Usage: Flash the lold_firmware sketch to your Arduino, keep it connected via USB. Build lold and lolplay with make. Start ./lold -d /dev/ttyUSB* where ttyUSB* or something similar is your Arduino device. You are ready to go! Now you can send animations to your LolShield. Try ./lolplay -m "Hello world" or try running ./lolmpd.sh if you use MPD. In ruby-lold you can find the old lold ruby implementation. Troubleshooting: If the output does not work, check whether the permissions on the device are not too strict, add user to uucp group if necessary. I just do chmod 777 /run/lock chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0 to make it work. ---- TODO: Find bug which kills lold sometimes sketch: full ascii font for hardware rendering
