A better Python script for uploading images

Install the [poster] module by running the command-line:

sudo pip install poster

UploadImage.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

import urllib, urllib2, os, os.path, sys
from poster.encode import multipart_encode
from poster.streaminghttp import register_openers
from time import sleep

register_openers()

query = { 'id' : 1 }
url = "http://domain.com/path/save_image.php?"+urllib.urlencode(query)

filename = '/var/www/html/cam.jpg'
#print 'Saved: '+filename;

while True:
  try:
    if (os.path.isfile(filename)) :
      values = {'image':open(filename)}
      data, headers = multipart_encode(values)
      headers['User-Agent'] = 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT)'
      headers['filename'] = filename
      req = urllib2.Request(url, data, headers)
      req.unverifiable = True
      content = urllib2.urlopen(req).read()
  except:
    print 'Upload failed.';
  sleep(1)

Edit ~/.bashrc and add the following to the end of the file.

python ~/Documents/UploadImage.py &

Reboot the Raspberry PI and the security camera is ready to go!

save_image.php

<?php

if (!isset($_GET['id'])) {
  echo ('Invalid request!');
  exit(0);
}
$id = intval($_GET['id']);

$image = $_FILES["image"];

if ($image == null) {
   echo ("Missing image!");
   exit(0);
} else {
   echo "Saved image!";
   $filename = "image" . $id . ".jpg";
   $tmp_name = $_FILES["image"]["tmp_name"];

Control your LEDs with your TV remote?! || Arduino IR Tutorial

I created a [XamarinFormsIoT] Windows Core IoT project which can control LEDs and play sounds on a Raspberry PI 3 using C#/XAML. I used a portable dependency interface to expose the GPIO controller which only exists in the UWP project. GPIO is used to control the LEDs. I also ordered an IR receiver so I can detect IR signals from a remote and it works!

Next I need to [find] a UWP library for LIRC.

The [Arduino-IRremote] has a C++ library that can be converted to UWP.

I followed the idea from the video below.

Raspberry PI 2 with Leap

The Leap Motion Controller requires ARM-9 or better and to make work with the Raspberry PI 2 I used a proxy HTTP server to work with the Raspberry PI 2. The Raspberry PI 2 controls servos based on the data from the leap. Each finger on the leap controls a different servo.

The project in action:

Details about the code:

The proxy sends JSON data for the finger rotations (in degrees).

Python with Bluetooth

I’m making another attempt to write a Python script that can list the paired Bluetooth devices.

Add library dependencies for gatt bluetooth protocol.

sudo apt-get install libperl-dev libgtk2.0-dev libboost-python-dev libboost-thread-dev libbluetooth-dev libglib2.0-dev python-dev

Install the Python BlueZ libraries.

sudo apt-get install python-bluez

That allows the Python BlueZ library to install.

sudo pip install PyBluez
sudo pip3 install PyBluez

Add the gattlib to support the gatt bluetooth protocol. Make sure all apps are closed as the `gattlib` setup scripts use a lot of memory and will not complete without sufficient RAM.

sudo pip install gattlib
sudo pip3 install gattlib

The [test-device python script] is able to list paired Bluetooth devices.

python test/test-device list

The org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties has a block of data on the PLT_Legend Bluetooth headset.

dbus.Dictionary({dbus.String(u’Name’): dbus.String(u’PLT_Legend’, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Paired’): dbus.Boolean(True, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Modalias’): dbus.String(u’bluetooth:v0055p0113d005D’, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Adapter’): dbus.ObjectPath(‘/org/bluez/hci0′, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’LegacyPairing’): dbus.Boolean(False, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Alias’): dbus.String(u’PLT_Legend’, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Connected’): dbus.Boolean(False, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’UUIDs’): dbus.Array([dbus.String(u’00001108-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb’), dbus.String(u’0000110b-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb’), dbus.String(u’0000110c-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb’), dbus.String(u’0000110e-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb’), dbus.String(u’0000111e-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb’), dbus.String(u’00001200-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb’), dbus.String(u’82972387-294e-4d62-97b5-2668aa35f618′)], signature=dbus.Signature(‘s’), variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Address’): dbus.String(u’48:C1:AC:E2:21:A7′, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Blocked’): dbus.Boolean(False, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Class’): dbus.UInt32(2360324L, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Trusted’): dbus.Boolean(True, variant_level=1), dbus.String(u’Icon’): dbus.String(u’audio-card’, variant_level=1)}, signature=dbus.Signature(‘sv’))

Turn on bluetooth device on boot

If you require turning on your bluetooth device at boot time automatically, for instance when you require keyboard / mouse support. You can add a udev rule to enable that. Additionally, you need to make sure you have the package bluez-utils installed.

Create `/etc/udev/rules.d/50-bluetooth-hci-auto-poweron.rules` with the following content.

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="bluetooth", KERNEL=="hci[0-9]*", RUN+="/bin/hciconfig %k up"
