Code to provide local controls for the Arup IoT desk. Utilises the tinkerforge hardware stack.
Intended to run on a tinkerforge redbrick and Raspberry Pi but can run on any system with the required python dependencies installed so long as you can connect to the tinkerforge stack over a network.
It will auto-detect bricklets compatible with the code and provide sensor readings / control of relays on a 128x64 OLED - joystick or multitouch can be used to navigate the menu.
The code may need running multiple times before it runs successfully.
