The libphidget library provides an API for controlling
|
Phidgets USB devices. The library translates API function
|
calls to libusb function calls to control attached Phidgets
|
devices that provide GPIO's, DAC's, accelerometers, servo
|
motors, and other capabilities either singly or on combo
|
devices.
|
|
To use libphidget for controlling locally attached devices you
|
need to set up the userspace USB device tree /dev/bus/usb. See
|
file udev/99-phidgets.rules.
|
|
The libphidget library also contains an API for sending
|
commands to a local or remote phidgetwebservice using HTTP.
|
The phidgetwebservice then translates HTTP requests to
|
libphidget API function calls to control locally attached
|
Phidgets devices.
