Fork of http://www.jraf.org/static/maven/sites/jlibibuddy/.
A Java library to control an i-Buddy (a 3-inch tall blinking and moving USB figureine, see http://www.i-buddy.com/ ). Currently it is only supported / tested under Windows.
Needs Java libusb / libusb-win32
Original maven repo http://www.jraf.org/static/maven/2/org/jraf/jlibibuddy/
We need to create backup archives for artifacts org.jraf:jlibibuddy:1.1 (see and the sourceforge) and libusbjava:libusbjava-native-win32:0.2.3.0 which are hosted on a private maven repository.
tedious to get libusb working while porting to linux, use other project instead:
still this git fork should once be done
and we have te maven artifact in gradle
See http://sourceforge.net/p/libusb-win32/wiki/Home/#installation.
For linux, use libusb?
Using the library is very simple as shown by this example:
import org.jraf.jlibibuddy.IBuddy;
import org.jraf.jlibibuddy.IBuddyException;
import org.jraf.jlibibuddy.IBuddyUtils;
(...)
// get the i-Buddy
IBuddy iBuddy = IBuddy.getIBuddy();
// send some low level commands directly
iBuddy.sendHeadColor(IBuddy.Color.RED);
iBuddy.sendHeart(true);
// use IBuddyUtils to send higher levels commands
IBuddyUtils.flap(iBuddy, 400, 7);
(...)
Most of the USB code was done following the code posted by "Tom" at http://cuntography.com/blog/?p=17. (dead)
